[QUOTE="scoobeb, post: 427790, member: 6843"] Wow,my 25hp 2 stroke merc with a 14 pitch prop moves my 1648 alumacraft loaded with 1000lbs total weight over 32mph,I thought it was wrong because that is insanely fast for a 25hp. I gps'd it again and again 3 different times and every time it was over 32mph so it was not a glitch or wrong. I even used 2 different gps's to confirm. My friend was in shock as well. With the stock 13 pitch prop it hit 30.5mph with 1000lbs of weight. By myself and just enough weight to stop the boat from porpoising I was at 34.6mph which was so fast I couldn't control the boat so I had to slow it down. I have never ran a 25hp 2 stroke merc with so much top end speed and power and I have bought and sold over 15 of them and none of them touched this particular engine in speed and power. [/QUOTE]
