Location: Not far enough north!

My 1760 with 75 Opti Gets 34mph with three guys and full load regularly... Load doesn't seem to effect performance very much at all. I hit 38 on an extremely long run with a light load last summer. Love this hull handles ruff stuff amazinly. Last year trying to beat a storm I was heading right into the wind into about 1.5' waves and my uncle who has a real bad back was laying on the front deck. He peeked up from his napping position and looked at me and said I didnt realize it was that rough out. He could hardly feel the bumps. If the 175T handles anything like the 1760 it will be a big seller but the hull looks like it is shallower. How that will affect rough water capabilities is yet to be seen but I imagine guys who know a lot more than me have a pretty good idea...
