Had the same boat, 62 in summer heat, 67 (all GPS) was the best, no fuel, one person, cool temps, with the tide, with the wind, never duplicated.

I'm far from being any king of expert or trying to be an a**hole , but those numbers seem a little light. I think you might be leaving some money on the table. What does the boat weigh and what kind of RPM's are you running ?

I was getting 71-72 out of my 288 open bow w/496HO with a stock28 bravo .
