[QUOTE="wmk0002, post: 410016, member: 13975"] Did that 15hp Evinrude really only push a 1432 13mph? I have been tinkering with a '67 9.5 hp Evinrude and finally lake tested it on a 1436 loaded with myself and dad (who total about 320), 6 gallons of gas, and another 80 lbs motor and hit 15mph despite the motor needing to be raised a few more inches since the transom was a little short. The other motor I mentioned was a '82 Evinrude 15hp. I tried it as well and it felt like it shot the boat out of a cannon compared to the 9.5. I didn't gps it though as it had an air leak somewhere and kept starving for fuel. [/QUOTE]
