According to my factory sales guide the top speed is 29mph@2750 RPM burning 42 GPH cruise is 24.6 MPH @ 2400 RPM 34 GPH, expect the actual real life performance to be a little less than that, the factory usually publishes the best case scenario.

If the bottom has the slightest bit of growth on it or if the props are the least bit out of alignment it could easily drop the performance down below 26mph. I would expect real life performance to be around the 26 -27mph, when comparing the performance of a boat on a seatrial to the factory specs, you need to account for current, wind, how the props are tuned, and what the bottoms condition is as well as where your trim tabs are positioned.
