I’m sure a 190 with a 115hp would be better, but how does it perform with a 90hp?

Low 40's
I have GPS'd mine at 40 with my two sons (about 600 pounds total with me). I'm running a 22P Laser with motor as mounted from the factory in the top hole.

I can get about 40 WOT with a full tank.
I get 42-43 on mine
Thanks for the info.
I like my choice of the 90 over the 115. All four of the major lakes I fish have lots of standing timber. Not a lot of opportunity to open up for fear of hitting a submerged standing tree. I spent the additional money, I would have spent on a 115, buying a 24 V variable speed replacement trolling motor and a good front fish finder

Fortrex 80 w/ 52" shaft
I got to 47 mph gps with a 6” jack plate and a 21” Trophy prop. After adding 3 AGM 31 batteries, additional electronics and a 80 lb trolling motor I had to drop down to a 19” prop and now run 42 to 43 with full tank of gas, loaded down and just me.
