Hello, I bought this boat off of ebay pending going to pick it up. I plan to put a Mercury 1500 on it and rig it along with modern steering and carpet and lounge seats. Does anyone have any general thoughts about this model boat re: performance or other? Are these heavy boats? I had an 18 ft. Glastron tri-hull from the same era that would reach 36 MPH with the 75 Merc 1500. Would it be reasonable to assume that this Cobia could hit 40 MPH with that same motor?
Thanks for any and all replies!
