I'm expecting low 90's out of my new boat and curious as to where that puts me for cruise?
My last boat did 64 at 45-4600 and I cruised at 49-50 at 3600. I think it was over propped a bit for top end but mainly cruised so enjoyed the faster speed at 35-3600.
Thanks

I figured that. Motor is starting to come together so I am trying to keep my sanity by thinking about something else other then the ups man dropping boxes off at my house.
I think I'm starting to see a light at the end of the tunnel.

Isn't that the truth. I bought this boat last fall went straight how and pulled the motor the next day. That's when the dreaming and watching YouTube started. Trying to see pictures and videos of what my new boat looks like in the water. Lol

top speed is a hard number that can't be argued. it either goes that fast or it doesn't. cruise speed is totally an opinion. low 90's top speed, one guy will say 35 cruise. another guy will say it cruises at 88...my idea of cruise speed is the number above which she digs her fingernails in my arm...
