my dad did some modifications to the engine. he is good at that. the boat will do about 17 cruise and 22 to 24 top. the shape of the hull doesn't really lend itself to quick planing. it has a 1 foot keel, and the bow is so sharp. it is awesome in rough water though. you'd have to see it to understand. the hull is nothing like the current trophies.
