I'm arguing with me crazy uncle. So how fast would a 1980 merc 225 (1.87 gears) @ 6000rpm with a 19 inch stainless (quicksilver) push 19 ft Baha?

How about a 23 Inch Quicksilver?

Thanks in advance. I'll let y'all know who wins. :D

Well I guess I lose. I said under 50 mph. He said he ran 61. I still have my doubts (btw it was bolted low on the transom). :cry:
