    I have a 1/16th shovelnose that has a 3600 kv Ammo motor and uses a Hacker 70 and a 2s lipo with a Octura X430R prop and it is close to 40 cretainly higher than 35. If you used a 3S and a lower KV I think you would be at 40 or slightly above. Boat is 22.5 long

                    Porbably have a whole lot of torque so you would most likely be able to handle a much larger prop than my boat can. My boat uses a X430. Never used one but it could work.

                      Do you think a x 435 would give some speed
