Default Ben Robertson rigging 42 fountain with Merc 1350s
Estimates speed to be in the 150s. Seems conservative. Should hit that mark without much trouble. Fountain gurus thoughts and top speed guesstimates ?

I think that boat is going to hurt a lot of feelings! Should be nasty.

Depends on how loaded out it is. I don't think a 42 with a full cabin and a stock merc 1075 runs 140.

I believe RB,s 42 has been to 140+ I think his is bumped to 1200 s . Full cabin lightning .

My understanding full cabin 42's with 1075's run 128 to 130 stock...

Correct on the above. The poker run 1075 42 is good for 140.

So. That being said. Let's here some top end guesstimates. If a poker run with 1075s runs 140. This boat with 1550s should run?
