Wow - a 175hp Etec - possibly the best all around outboard for this boat !

I'm guessing top end, flat water, engine trimmed up just before the point of porpoising, with 1/2 tank of fuel, one person aboard, bimini down.............

Should see.......... 45-47 mph

The biggest difference is likely fuel burn.........at 3,500 - 4,000 rpm it may be using as little as 7 gallons per hour.

Great looking boat !
