90 4-stroke merc.
well by looking at everyone's numbers my 90 four stroke merc does
pretty good. I don't know that I would spend the extra money unless
you are a tournement fisherman and need to outrun someone to your
favorite spot. Mine has a 13 1/4 x 15 aluminum mercurey prop and I'm
turning 6000 rpm@wot and my gps speed is around 37.8 w/2 guys', gear,
40 gal. bait tank full. and 1/2 tank of fuel. I think it would do a littl better
than that with maybe a 16 pitch prop.
