That is great that it is working for you. What is the max recommended rpm for that motor?

If its 5500 or so, you may have to drop back one more on the prop pitch to get there.

Most 2 strokes like RPM and won't last if lugged. Check the mfr's recommended RPM range, shouldn't drop below the bottom end of the RPM range with a full load. Sounds like this might be an economical boat. I've rode in a V20 with a Johnson 85 hp V4 engine, planed off nicely and ran 28 mph.
