The hp on that boat is about what it is rated for. Those hulls Carolina skiff makes don't need much hp. shallow drafting boats.CF

Yes it is maxed out at 75HP.
Does pretty good for this boat with T Top. I had a Triton VT17 bass boat with 75HP and it worked hard to get 39mph. This one will do 38mph.

Really nice looking boat, hard to believe that it is still for sale. I know if I hadn't just bought a new boat last year I would be checking this boat out.
