Re: 43 mph on the river today

Oh, yeah, the manual is right on. My V tops at 4200 rpm and hits 41 mph with just a little tweek on the trim. Plenty fast, but I cruise at 3500 rpm at 30-ish mph. Great fuel economy (I think, there ain't no odometer on this thing ;) ) and a real nice ride. And yes, it's a chebby.

Theoretically, If I use the same prop then I should have similiar results, other things being equal ?

So, in the next couple days I'll check - rpm and speed at wot via gps and the prop stats. When I bought the boat I tested compression and it was solid all around for what that's worth on this subject.

Thanks for the input.

The camera comes on with the lights, but it is one of the few VHS units we still have so no video for you.
