LOL ! That's a good one ! Answer - not fast enough..................... yet.

Going to test on flat water tomorrow - Del River to confirm where cavitation plate rides with boat on plane, and if the prop holds on fairly tight turns.

Based on what I see, plan is to raise the prop one, ......maybe both holes and re test.

I WANT 50 mph + !!! Then I'll be totally satisfied because so far, I'm very impressed with this etec 200 HO. At 3,500 rpm, the boat is moving 25 mph area, and the motor sounds like it's just about idling. Seriously - that's how it sounds. It has a lot of torque - bump the throttle just a little and the boat surges forward.

I'd raise it two holes, that way you won't have to wonder if one was enough

Exactly what I'm thinking - and now set to have raised on Tuesday.
