That layout is very similar in many ways to the 2005 and newer alumacraft navigator 165 series.
With a 75hp tiller on it, I would bet you would be looking at around 36 to 38 mph. It will handle bigger water just fine. Bigger lakes like Leech, Winnie, Mille Lacs, etc. are definitely worthy of the boat's use, although you will definitely want to watch the wind when it starts to blow 15 mph or so.
In the waves, the boat handles very well, given you are not over-driving the situation.
Good boat.
