    Anything from 15 - 30 mph depending on whet weight you are carrying, fast enough in a 12ft boat :D

    I used to have a 12 footer too with a 10hp two stroke merc, with two people I got around 20-23mph. I would think you will get about the same. With one person 25mph or so should be possible.

    Oh check thoroughly for leaky rivets, it you have some you need to re-rivet. Dont bother trying to seal it with anything.
