My pontoon boat is 24' with a 115 hp merc and on a good day, if the boat is light it will do 28-29 mph. We are not speed demons so that is plenty fast for us. If I remember correctly the guys at Irwin told me if I upgraded to the 150 hp we would need to add the a third pontoon and could only expect another 5-6 mph. Didn't seem worth it to us.
