Nice, those are nice boats. Mine is 18' long, bottom is .19 aluminum, not sure how thick my teflon is, dry weight is also 1800 lbs, 160 hp jmax yamaha.
My top speed so far is 39 mph, but I have been talking to a guy in the states with the exact same boat who used to max out at 35-37 when stock. He put in a different impeller (more get up and go, less top speed) but then put in an air stack kit, and now he does 44 mph upstream, 47 mph downstream. Not sure if I need to go faster than 39 mph, but if I can do it, I'm all for having the ability. The quicker response on the hole shot and getting up on plane right away with a heavier load would be a nice plus.
Did you do any mods to your boat?
