    2018 Sweetwater 2086C

    I just purchased a 2018 Sweetwater by Godfrey 2086C pontoon. It has a 2021 Honda 90 motor on it. I also run a 2019 BassCat Caracal and have had a bass boat of some type all my life. When I purchased the pontoon I wasn't expecting a speed demon but I was thinking it would be a little faster than what I am seeing on my GPS. 20mph at 5100 rpm. Sound about right to you guys? Got more RPM's left in it but still in break-in period so I haven't stretched it out yet. Any ideas on the optimum prop for this pontoon/motor? Thanks.

    we have a 2020 22' Misty Harbor tritoon with a 140hp Suzuki 4 stroke. It will do 38 with perfect conditions. Now put the bimi top up and add a couple of adults and 4 grandkids (total of 8) and she will do 28mph. Put a tube behind it and really feel the pull but it still performs well. Switch to knee boards and its fine for non aggressive borders.
    My opinion is 140/150hp is minimum if you are going to pull kids behind it. If not the 90hp will be fine, just set back and enjoy the ride.
