Im happy for you bro and I’m not surprised. I had
A 2015 Mercury 20hp and it was running 30mph with
me solo on a 1542 tracker . It ran 28 with 2 adults and
Ice chest, gear, etc . The total weight was about 1000lbs
with 2 people . You have a bigger heavier boat that’s why your
going a bit slower. I’m sure that engine is better as it is 30lbs
lighter and EFI . Try a 12 pitch and see what happens. Also a jackplate
really helps. Good choice on the tohatsu . Fastest engine out there . I sold
the 20 and bought a 30hp tohatsu and now I’m doing 37-38 solo
but chinwalking badly . Too much motor for the boat but I’m thinking
of getting a bigger boat anyway. Tracker is **** . They make a good
Welded boat but it’s too heavy.
