I get nervous in the 60s on a 28 .. no way in hell I'd go 80 in a 20 footer.

I love the queen size bed in the bow! Neat trick for such a small boat.

80, with a 454.....YEAAAAAAAAA, sure it does. First off, I wouldn't want to do 80 in a 21 hammer! My 24 Outlaw did up near 80 with a blown 650 and it was a bit scary at that speed. Liked to chine walk a bit

A neighbor had one. It went 67 on the speedo. Probably less on GPS.

NO WAY it does 80! I have been over 80 (85 on speedo) in several bassboats and small boats can be stable at speed. Those things are a blast running 3/4 throttle in 75 ft wide creeks.
