Curious what people are seeing with their 175 mercs? Obviously the boat matters and whether its tournament filled or not...but curious what people are seeing in real numbers?

Most 18-19' rigs running a 175 ProXS are in the 64-70 MPH range (with a few slower, a few faster).

I have ran a bit over 64gps with my 18ft.HydraSport.@4"Tempest plus,5500rpms,30gal. gas. Fixing to drop down to a 22pitch in the near future and give it a go.
22P-23P range would be a good starting point.
