I bought an '08 Navigator with a 90hp Suzuki. It went mid-40s before I added trolling motor, batteries, and gear. Now it maxes out around 40mph with just me, high 30s with four people. It pulls me (200lbs) up on two water skis. I've found that I definitely need to hammer the throttle to get on plane if I've got 3-4 guys in the boat but then it cruises. I'm sure that changing the pitch on my prop would make a world of difference for that situation.

All in all, I'm very happy with the 90hp. The ONLY regret is that you can't get a nice slow troll in without stepping down to the trolling motor.
