35 mph

The REV 4 is a good prop, and many have said the new ENERTIA works REALLY well on boats in this size range. I only mention the MIRAGE style because they can be had for VERY reasoneable money if you watch EBAY and CRAIGSLIST. And the large diameter really helps to get your cruising speed up there, and it holds the water with a death grip.

I carry a lot of weight in my boats, when I had the V20 it would be 2 or 3 guys 60 gal gas, and all gear.
I liked the 15 x 15 1/4 prop, got out the hole fast and still manged mid 30's for speed.

Plus, whent the boat fills up with water the lower pitched prop will still dig you out - right MJ?!?

You definitely have a 2.0L with those numbers. Try raising the motor a few holes up, you might pick up a few MPH. 35mph for a 2.0L . . . is not too far off.
