If I read correctly, you recorded 49 mph at only 4,500 rpm with a less than perfect 200 hp outboard.

That suggests to me that full out / approx another 1,000 rpm you'd be around 55-60 mph.

Impressive.
That's according to a late 90's/early 00's GPS. But I did pull away from my dad like he was sitting still and his hurricane will do 38 or so. Not sure what prop I have yet. Never bothered to look.
