I just ordered the 1850 Fish Hawk DC!! look’s like a saweet ride! Paired it up with a 140 4 stroke Johnson. Should go around 50?? Should have her on her maiden voyage in a couple weeks. Meanwhile I bid a fond ‘adeu to the 1750 . Great boat at a good price.

Willard Andrist has that boat with a Suzuki 140 4-stroke and I think he said it runs 43mph if I remember right. He loves the gas milage with it.
Thanks, BillJiraPosts: 517March 26, 2004 at 8:12 am #298365Congrats!! Sweet rig! They are soooooo nice to fish out of!
It’ll run ’bout 40 with an OEM prop. See..
March 26, 2004 at 11:58 am #298367Congrats Chappy,
I run a 2003 1850 FH DC with a Suzuki 140. With a normal load, I run between 43-44 mph gps. If you need more speed, adjusting motor height and prop pitch may help. Have a great year with your new boat, you have a very nice rig!
If you need additional info, send me a pm.Sandbar
March 26, 2004 at 12:15 pm #298368Whew…nice boat! I wish I had my 2001 1850 back sometimes.
Don’t get your hopes up too high for 50mph. Thats a BIG boat! My dealer has rigged a few with 150 Yammys and they top out at about 45-46. A 175 HDPI will get ya over the 50 mph mark but a few more $$$.Don HansonPosts: 2073March 26, 2004 at 1:39 pm #298381Chappy, I set up a client with the Johnson 140 last year. Great motor, you will love it!
March 26, 2004 at 9:50 pm #298439I COULD CARE LESS ABOUT THE SPEED, I’M JUST LOOKING FORWARD TO ALL THE EXTRA ROOM.
March 26, 2004 at 9:55 pm #298440Need extra room for more green t-shirts? BTW-when are you taking me fishing?
March 26, 2004 at 9:57 pm #298441Gotta wait for my new one to come in now, I’m taking the one I got and meeting a guy in Kenyon tonight! I’ll let ya know when I have an openning! A guy get’s a new boat and everybody want’s to go fishing with him! It’s like having a pick up!
March 27, 2004 at 12:30 am #298461You also will catch more fish in a new boat too. [cause you will go fishing more often in a new boat]. Have fun!!!
Thanks, BillMarch 30, 2004 at 2:03 pm #298879just bought a 1700 super hawk with a 90 horse 4 stroke. Had 4 of us in it, 2 of us 250 plus, and we were able to get just over 40. Thats just after the first 2 hours of break in. Should get faster.
