I agree the published test results in magazines and manufacture marketing sheets are not at all accurate. My boat is supposed to be 13,000 lbs but weighed 19,000 lbs on the lift. Why don't we try to get people that know their boats start to give what their vessels require. I know many have changed props (pitch or number of blades), slime on the hull, ethanal fuel robbing performance, full tanks or unbalanced loads, etc.

I posted many of my boats actual operating capabilities so maybe others can and we can get some idea if elcase's theory can be of vaue....
