Most of the time loaded mid fifties and light would be upper fifties. http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/wink.gif
55-58 depending on load
59 max on gps, no jackplate, alone, full wells, 1/2 tank of gas, & a bunch of gear. It'll do low 50's easy. Not sure how much gain you'd see with a jackplate.
Took her out this weekend.....
62.4 @ 5700rpm with 1/2 tank gas, me and my gear.
I have an 8" jack plate, prop is 3 1/4" below pad, 23 tempest plus.

That's the fastest I've heard for this boat/motor. Nicely done. That jackplate turned out to be a good investment.

The 8 inch jack plate helps this hull out a lot, but at 62.4 that is some awsome speeds right there, would not touch one thing on that rig. http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/wink.gif

Is your Tempest stock?
Or, had it been tweaked?
Stock prop....I was only able to hit that the one trip.
Last time out I couldn't get past 60 but the weather was a little rough for top speed. http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/thumbsup2.gif
That jackplate really helps the hull out alot!
KEWL!
Sounds like you're borderline perfection on your Z setup. Don't touch that prop. Find a Tempest and have it tweaked for your spare. If you like the tweaked one better Sweet, if not, oh well. Sounds like you got a winner right out of the box.
