When its just me I can run 35mph and be happy, but when I load it up with the family, gear, trash, dogs, and guests I plow along at 17mph if I'm lucky.
If we stay with it I am going to re-prop at least, if not repower to a 200hp.

Wow that is a huge drop in speed! What is your WOT RPM when you are alone going at 35 mph??
I know on my 22 Eastern my max speed is around 38 mph or so with a very light load. When it’s totally loaded down to the max I can still easily get 30 mph out her. Your speed drop seems excessive which would lead me to the prop….
Now for the big question….if you do get that Axopar, how many boats will that make for you over the years?? ��
