My brother took these from his '96 202 Scout with 2008 200 h.o. V-TEC in Lake Borgne a few months ago. He's not easy to keep up with when he wants to open it up. Thats me running wide open at 44 mph with the 150 V-Max (downwind, downsea, half tank of fuel, trimmed out and throwing all the dead weight out as we go).

Sweet looking ... I could only wish for the ocean to be that flat..
(You know, looking at that second pic and thinking about what you said about throwing out the dead weight to keep up... if you gave your passenger a life jacket and tossed him overboard you'd probably pick up an extra mile per hour or so... Might want to think about that next time.)

Yeah...I guess I could toss him but I can only get 46 by myself and it's my wife's brother, so I guess I gotta keep him. Lake Borgne is open to the Gulf of Mexico and averages about 8 ft. deep, so that's about the calmest day you're ever gonna see on that lake. If we get any wind at all we get 3-5 footers with no duration and the chop just kills you. Then we get the occasional hurricane and the whole thing backs up into Lake Pontchartrain and ends up in your living room.
