    4500 rpms pushes my tugboat 75 mph. it seems like 75 to 80 is the sweet spot.

    For me, 75 is over the hop, typically cruise there.
    Per Rock:

    "Once I bought my first Hydrostream boating changed forever for me."

    Per my hero Instigator:

    "I try not to let common sense interfere w/my boat buying decisions."
