If I read correctly, you recorded 49 mph at only 4,500 rpm with a less than perfect 200 hp outboard.

That suggests to me that full out / approx another 1,000 rpm you'd be around 55-60 mph.

Impressive.
I don't doubt that a 200 would push a V20 to 50 mph. My uncles V20 cuddy with an old 225 Yamaha is scary fast. Granted i didn't check the speed with a gps but it's way faster than my 22 footer.
