I think this was worth doing back with the 35hp engines.

Now with the 37/40 the speed will not be that much faster.

I know a few people who put a 70 4 stoke on a gatortail boat and could only cruise at 35. So they spent a few grand to go about 3 or 4mph faster.

If the noise is that big of an issue I would keep both boats. One for ducks and one for fishing.

This totally depends on load and hull shape. I have a 37 gtr that will push me and nothing else 28-29. With a load I go 26 and with the same load I go 40ish with the outboard.

If you have the space and budget, get two boats. Otherwise, switch them out.
