[QUOTE="Zum, post: 513967, member: 349"] Like others have mentioned, your speed is good. Getting a cheap induction tach (tiny tach or knock off) is a good investment, tells your hours use, rpm and knowing your rpm is the only way to pick the right prop. Nice looking boat, Id say your in the ballpark for sure, speed is good, planeing time wasnt terribly long. A lower pitch prop or a 4 blade prop would plane you out faster and most likely keep you on plane at a slower pace but you will probably loose some top end. A tach will help you fine tune, easy to hook up, wrap 1 wire around your spark plug wire and find a ground for the other wire, done. [/QUOTE]
