Default Fastest 390 CC with trip 300 Vrods

This boat is heading west to Lake Powell.
They don't want the full windshield so they can get some breeze. We installed a flip up windscreen.

I guess there's some speed loss in the big full windscreen.

All of the boats lately are getting the new bigger Mercury lower. There's supposed to be a mile or two loss with them but here's what we got with this boat.

Would've been faster with 300XSs, Verados are 110+lbs heavier.

maybe, maybe not . i think the 300v's would have more TQ for a big boat like that , and TQ is what is needed to get it moving
