[QUOTE="back4more, post: 343537, member: 1482"] Thanks for all the input everyone. I understand that weight has a lot to do with the speed, and prop does too. I was just surprised to find that my 6hp pushed us at 13 mph but the 15hp will only do 17 mph with just 135 lbs more. Not what I had in mind when I sprung for the costly upgrade. I can understand not getting 28-30 mph with the weight I had in the boat, but a 4 mph increase isn't much considering the motor difference. [/QUOTE]
