"Hi Guys,
We are thinking of upgrading our 28' Statesman motor to something that moves a little faster, she currently only runs at max 9 knots. I think she has AQAD40 & we have the option to buy AQ41A. If the AQAD40 is 165 hp & the AQ41A is 200 hp, how much of a difference in speed do you think we might expect? Currently running A2 duo prop."

"A pick of the boat might give a clue, but I'm afraid the speed increase might be max 1 knot!
Sounds like a displacement boat and will probably stay as a displacement boat.
Max LWL in meters will mainly give you max speed.
28ft = 9,5 meters, 9-10 knots max."
