Two people, inshore gear, artificial bait :
1) Tee top with electronics box - 36 MPH WOT, 21 MPH cruise at 4,000 getting 3.5 MPG.
2) Bimini top, little windshield - 40 MPH WOT, 24 MPH cruise at 4,000 getting 3.8 MPG.
Zuke 140's are very good motors with occasional minor problems with premature corrosion at the base of the oil coolers. They are the right weight motors for the 20' Seacrafts to run on a slow plane when it is raggedy out and you want to get home without "crashing" to much and spilling your beer.
Pictures and data about how you use the boat would help, Bro'; Just sayin'.
