It jumps up on plane quick and averages around 4.5 mpg for the day. I will say this, I grew up on bass boats fishing tournaments and if I was fishing larger lakes exclusively I'd want a faster boat. The ocean out of Santa Barbara is rarely flat enough to run much faster than I do.

So this would be taking over the job that a pontoon boat was doing at the moment, I was looking to sell my SF20 and then some family was looking to replace a pontoon boat at my grandparents place. Kinda felt like a win cause I really don't want to sell it and they have a place to put it and are willing to buy in on it.
BUT its a big damn river and yeah 35mph WOT may be just a tad slow but then again its not like that pontoon went any where quickly.
