[QUOTE="Buster, post: 508333, member: 27745"] Similar experience. I have a '66 Lund C-14 with a 2021 Tohatsu 9.8. Alone, balanced, and trimmed, 17mph but 12ish if it isn't balanced. Add a buddy in front, 12mph. And a second, 10ish. Depending on the year, that Sea Nymph empty is 200-300 pounds more than my Lund, so it's like having another guy and a half in the boat right off the bat (Your friend size may vary.) And it's got a foot more beam. I think you're just underpowered, but a tach will tell. Really like my tiny tach, although I wish I'd gotten the long lead version. [/QUOTE]
