Hi All,

Following on from some previous posts that have been very helpfully answered.......

I am wondering if anyone can tell me at a rough guess / using your experience the kind of maximum speed I can expect my boat to do (I need to know for insurance / licence purposes):

The boat is here:

The engine is:

8hp Suzuki 4-stroke......

many thanks everyone,
neil

Well it's not going to get up on the plane so I would put down it's displacement speed. You can work this out using hull length but about 6 knots is a ball park figure.
