If everything is set up well, you should see 55 or 60, if it really only weighs 400 lbs.

What kind of boat? Is that a crossflow v4 or looper? What prop?

A Hydrostream Viper might be able to do 65 to 70, but my 17' aluminum boat would probably do low 40's.

On my vector a big ear chopper gave me nearly 10 on top compared to my yamaha lake use prop...but being pretty sluggish out of the hole was the trade off.
