I ran a couple XR6 Mercs on the 1760 hull, and really liked the motor. It's as strong a design as any out there, and is fast, too. You will be in the mid 40's at the 'sweet spot' rpm, and fuel consumption there won't be too bad at all. Open her up, and 50's somewhere will be the result. Apply an 8" set back and the right prop, and you can just barely tap 60.
