While some may have similar setups identical is unlikely.
If you have a prop your better off doing a couple of lightly loaded test runs.
let us know your prop size, year of the motor wot rpm and gps speed.
Wouldn't hurt to tell us about your Maritime 1690.
Tell us what you would like to accomplish.

After a little research The 1690 is rated for 40-75 hp.A 50 is at the bottom of the rule of thumb of 2/3 to 3/4 of the rated hp.
Speed with max hp is 32-35 My guess is about 28 with a 50.Boat is 1200 lbs dry.

close, its a 92 Hull, rated for 40-70hp. Suzuki is a 1999 max rpm 5900-6500. Basically the hull has been the same since 92 when they started and the DF50 had no real changes from 99-2011. Just looking for someone with the same set up, lots were sold with suzukis.
