I went up to 2.5" shafts. I think Mario is doing the same. There is also another repower of a 53ED going on right now. That's DLCameron. He already upsized his shafts a few years ago when he re-geared.
I love to see these old boats brought back to "better-than-new".

HI John,
Yes I estimate at least 18Kts.

Yes, Had to go up to 2.5" shafts for the HP spec and 2:1 gear ratio
