Got my first V20, She's a beauty

I forget what prop I'm running rite now but its gets to bout 44 - 46 mph and I usually cruise at 32-35
My marine mechanic says I can try out some props he has at the shop to get a little more speed if I want.

Thanks Lumberslinger, I'm hoping that the 150 4 stroke is going to be enough for mine, time will tell.

I went from a merc 150 2s to the new 150 4s. Actually increased wot by a little- 38mph to 42mph. Hole shot was biggest difference. Hard to describe, but the boat felt more "nimble" with the 2s. Also think the boat rides deeper in the v when on plane with the 4s.

The boat feel like it's in 4wd all the time verses 2wd. Not a bad feel, just different.

While it seems you've found the unicorn 26 year old hull with dry bones, I'd eliminate that trim on the transom and cap with glass, just to eliminate a future issue.

Nice find!!!
