cool video and nice rig! i have a 94 alumacraft superhawk 1542 side console with a 2021 suzuki 30hp. was getting 30-31 mph with stock prop, getting about 28-29 with a solas prop.
Its 9 7/8 x 13 prop, on 2 stroke 30hp yamaha. That Suzuki should do great. I had a 20hp Suzuki on this boat before, if I remember it would do mid 20’s. Thanks for sharing
10.3x12. It’s stock pitch. 9-7/8 seems small for a 30hp? Maybe that motor was on something heavy before you got it? You can definitely get More speed out of your set up.

Alumacraft boats are good , did you change prop size?
What pitch prop? I have a new Suzuki 30 going on my rebuilt 1972 StarCraft V 16.👍 Great vid.

My 2018 Etec 25hp pushes my Alumacraft v16 to 29mph. Maybe your prop is too small
9-7/8x13 prop.. what size are you running?

It was on an inflatable tender for a yacht previously. I do plan on trying other props . Thanks
I am considering getting a new V16 and popping a 20hp Honda on back. Fishing and cruising rig
The V16 is a solid fishing boat for a couple guys 👍
I bet you can go faster with your buddy sitting behind
I have a 16' starcraft deep V with a 25 hp 2 stroke extended shaft 1988 Johnson that will do 26 mpg with ease
That’s a good speed , Thanks for commenting 👍
