Great boat ! I've got a question, how stable is she? I mean, is it able to stand and fish from it ?

[@Stromzilla]

Thank you for asking...I consider this boat to be very stable. It’s not like a trihull but is still good. Some of our viewers have talked about using the CVX16 for fishing.

My boys and I have fished from her a few times. It's a 2 person fisher as there really isn't a way to get away from each other.

A nice little boat, youve got it proped perfect at 5500rpm, a true 140 should have this boat in the mid 50's. Either your speedo is wrong or your motor is a 115. I say this as i had a cobia '17, weighing almost the same as your boat and with a 115 evinrude it got 46 mph. Check your powerhead # and its entirely possible youve got a 115 wearing a 140 cover. Your motor sounds strong and spinning what it should but your speed is off at least 5-7mph.
