Default 1972 20' Seacraft 2' chop video

http://youtu.be/raRRFZMeOjM

I took this today in Buzzards Bay when the wind kicked up. Wind was 15 knots out of the NE and I think the tide was running against the wind. Flat calm in the morning though. 140 Suzuki 4 stroke. 21 knots with no tabs

The morning started off a lot nicer

Nice!
Looks like the anchor locker was open and the anchor chain hanging out and it didn't move.
Can't wait to see how my 18' runs.

Yup anchor locker and chain was out as I was moving from spot to spot looking for tautog. More impressive was the 6 mpg I was getting at 21 knots.

Do you have performance numbers throughout the range?
I'm considering a DF140, but may want more power, considering all the modifications/weight I've added.
