Planet earth Tom. I just came back from Greenwood lake and used the speedo I
ran 32mph across the lake. It's possible the Lund cuts water better once
it's up on plane than what you are used to. Sorry you don't agree.

Listen bud don't let the speed deamons scare you. I have an 18ft lund
explorer and it's probably heavier than your bayrunner. it has a 25 and a
9.9 on it. The 25 runs that rig at about 30-35 mph depending on

conditions
and the 9.9 will push it to around 20 it's because of the prop on the

newer
engines that you get these results.


You have a 18ft Lund Explorer that has a 25 hp engine and it will do
30/35 mph along with a 9.9 that will push it to 20 mph.

What planet did you say you live on?

My friend had, up until this year, a 35 johnson from 1980, the same model
that is now a 25. It would do 24 mph wide open, by GPS. Perhaps yours
is a lot faster, or perhaps you need a new speedometer.

I am not running a older OMC Johnson it's a newer Suzuki 25. it may sit in
the water just right with this motor, the pitch of the prop may be just
right, and possibly the lake was too calm when I ran the test, all I know is
it just ran great and better than I expected.I'm sorry you guys don't
believe me.
