Considerin your size................. about 3 mph. :o

Just kiddin man. You might get up around 15ish or so. That motor runs a 9x3 prop. I tried a 16 on my ole 1836 skiff and wit the ole lady and my two lil girls we ran 16 mph. Only reason I say 15ish or so with your boat is cause of the 16 foot length. I think longer is better for everything but your boat might surprise us. Dont know.

It shall go......as fast as your truck will pull it. :P I get 15 easy outta my 1648 w/ 24 hp. You should get something like that, considering your boat is a little narrower and probably considerably lighter than this thing.
