Boat Speed?

[mnhunter17]

I have a 14 ft v bottom alumacraft. How fast will a 9.9 4 stroke push this boat with two people in it?

Full speed?

Might get up to plane but not a whole lot more I suspect so maybe 15mph?

14 foot lund with a 9.9 yamaha we could not get better than 12mph...the outfitter had put on a special "prop guard" that slowed us a little but I don't think we were going to gain more than 1 or 2 mph with it off.

I would say about 12-15 mph.

depends on how heavy your boat is....I have a 14 foot V with a 15 hp and by myself I get 18-19mph tops with 2 people I go to around 12mph and 3 people I am down to 8 mph....but I have wood floor, casting deck in front and casting area in the back
