Default Re: performance and bottom paint removal?

Roger that, seastrike - 30 years of bottom paint = drag. I have a smooth unpainted 20' Seafari hull and get 36 mph at 5500 rpm in flat or chop with an old unmodified in-line 6 Merc 115 with 40 gallons of fuel 20 gal. Bait tank and 500 lb riders. Gotta believe that e-tec can do much better, still check those other issues when you can...
