Where are you located? I picked up my 17 FTD in November and just absolutely love the boat. I am in Mobile so if you are close or down this way we might can get together and take it out. I am running the 150 proxs with a 24 tempest plus. Whole shot is amazing and the best I have seen so far was 70.6 by GPS. with a very light load and half tank of fuel, live wells full, but a consistant 65-67 depending on load fuel state and livewells empty or full. The only time I have seen under 65 at WOT is during breakin. I havent played with the jack plate or props so there is definately some more to be had from this rig. Iam happy with its performance so far so why change it. I will recomend getting the tilt helm it makes getting up and down a lot easier and the blinker trim.
