This is a detailed performance report that an Evinrude tech rep did using my boat and motor. It is a rough draft, and has a couple of errors in it (max hp and optimum fuel mileage being two), but the final draft should be posted on Evinrude's website shortly.

nice report. I wonder what the bottom width of the boat was?

The bottom width is 49"... not sure why they listed the beam as 49"

It seems a bit unrealistic in my opinion, I read the whole thing and it said the load was the driver, motor, fuel, and test and safety supplies.

On the other hand there is the weight distribution issue slowing him down in the semi planing range. The 25 hp large displacement motor is heavy for a two stroke, and the man and likely also fuel are all in the back, not a good idea on a narrow rockered hull.

I wonder how it would do with a 10 or 15 yamaha or tohatsu and someone up in the bow?
