    just wonderingif anybody would know the top speed of a 18’6″ pro v single counsel, with a 150 verado (stock prop)

    he is having issues with the motor. hes getting alot of fuel in the oil of the engine……

    guy that i work has one and was talking about its performance and it seemed a little slow. hes getting 38 mph…… i have a 19′ dual counsel ranger with a 175 and imn getting 52-52 mph loladed with musky gear and 1/2 tank fuel( both on gps by the way)

    thanks guys
