On Thursday my son is picking up a '96 Gambler 209TE with a '01 Johnson 225 H.O. ,25P Trophy & hydraulic jack plate (10" set back) that he'll fish out of in college next Fall. Y'all have any insight on what to expect speed wise with this set-up? Assume 2 men and tournament load. We'll 'lake test' prior to purchase of course, but I'm unsure if lake conditions will allow a full top end run.
I run a '13 22C Sterling/Gambler Bass Boat with a 250 SHO. I can't have my son passing me up!!!
