Re: Engine RPM/Prop pitch
taking 2" out of the prop will increase your WOT and lower your cruise speed....you want to add 2" of pitch which will lower your wot and raise your cruise speed....
IF I read your post correctly...the main thing is that WOT should be about 5k rpm.....that should be just before the hi rpm cutout engages.....
so...run the boat wot and see where she settles down at..then go from there...your boat should max out at about 42mph...5k rpm....
