2 very good points. He is running a Johnson 115 or something like that. I asked him how fast we were going and he said it was about 1/2 to 3/4 throttle. What that is in m.p.h. I'm not sure. He hit wide open throttle once just to show me what top end was like and yes we were moving a lot faster than my boat. In fact at top end the ride was better than at cruiseing speed. My Lund with a 50 on it hits in the upper 30 m.p.h. and on a good day with the water conditions and the humidity low and only myself in the boat I have hit 40+ m.p.h. this is with gps tracking the speed. Although I haven't driven his boat, I have sat at the console. I can't get my legs under it.
Yes, he was having some trouble with the trim angle. He hadn't had it for very long and was playing with trim as we ran, so I'm sure that is a factor.
I would like to point out that I'm not saying my little lund is as well built as a ranger. I'm just saying that I wasn't as impressed with the ride as I had been led to expect. | |
