Sorry 'bout that. I hit some "hot key" and it transmitted before I wanted to do so.

During my initial break-in period on my new boat (Lund 1675 ProSport with a 115 HP Suzuki 4-STK), I got 26 mph at 4000 rpm at 5,500' altitude with a 19 pitch prop. Can someone tell me if speed is linear with RPMs so I might expect to get ~40 mph at WOT @ 6,000 RPM?

My slowest trolling speed seemed to be about 2.0 - 2.2 mph (by GPS).

I think that you will be getting about 40 running wide open.

Take care

Atomic Eye, did you get "gone fission" from Mr. Burn's boat on the Simpson's? If you did, I've just gained a little more respect for you!
