[QUOTE="lugoismad, post: 452791, member: 16518"] Ok, I had a feeling he was full of BS, because I talked to a guy at the boat ramp last week who had a very similar boat but it was a sea nymph and he had an 85 horse motor and he said it maxed around 35. However, still doesn't explain the RPMs maxing at 4k. I think I'll try putting the 15 pitch back on and seeing what the RPMs do, I don't want to lug the engine with too much pitch. It seemed like it performed a lot better with the 15 pitch prop. [/QUOTE]
