Re: e-tec numbers
Yes as it's trimmed up the prop noise get louder. *I don't know how it does it but the E-Tec won't allow you to trim it out of the water. *It is so quiet you can carry a normal conversation at full throttle. *I'll be posting my videos later. *Billy Mac *;D

2nd...what condition you trial in?...flat, no wind, no top, light load, 1/2 fuel tank, and no big fat nappy-headed hos? 3rd...motor trimmed out til she suckin' ducks (scary:o), but of course the rev-limiter won't let you blow your new motor 4th...assumin' all above, yer on the bottom of the mfgr's rpm range and I agree, that may not be best prop for fuel economy/cruisin' ... how's she do comin' outta the hole?...4 grand's a good cruisin' rev on lotta boats...what speed there?...

Re: e-tec numbers
You should run to a prop shop and have them tweak the prop some to give you a little extra rpm. 4900 is pretty close to the minimum 4850 and that will of course go down when you load the boat down.
