Re: My 75 20' Seacraft
 

Good looking boat....How do you like that E-Tec 150 on the 20? What kind of speeds are you getting?

Re: My 75 20' Seacraft
 

Thanks. Got the E-TEC in summer 07. It is awesome!
Very quiet and ,for a two stroke, very efficient. It pushes my boat at 44kts @ 5600rpm off the GPS when its light loaded. I think my T-Top generates a lot of drag and I could probably get a couple more kts without it. Also, have about two coats of bottom paint which is coming off this month. Regardless, the E-TEC gets it out of the water but it can get a little squirrely.

LOL about the Etec getting the boat "squirrly". I hit about 38 knots on my Master Angler and thats without a T-top with my 150 ETEC, but then again I'm not revving as high as you. I Max out a 5K RPMS. The ETEC dealer said thats fine, but this season I'm going to tweak the prop to get more RPMS.

I had about the same results with the stock prop my dealer sold me. Went to my local prop shop and he swapped me a SS 15X17 which made a big difference. Don't usually rage around that fast but you gotta know what it can do. :)

Nice lookin Seacraft. Is that Federal Yellow - Awlgrip?

How do you like those spray rails?

Also, I'm impressed with your top end. What prop are you spinning? With my 20 and a 21p Mirage, the fastest I've seen is 47.5 kts. Thats running a 175 Opti Pro XS on a bracket, no T Top, at 5600 rpm. Manual says I can spin up to 6000, but I have yet to see that.

Pretty boat.
