Did some testing today. WOT 5600 = 42 mph 37 knots F225 mounted in middle hole running 19M 15 1/4 x 19. Motor would start to blowout if I trimmed up anymore. I would say she was trimmed pretty good though. Real light steering and felt like she was barely in the water Slip is 17% At cruise 4200 = 32 mph 28 knots. At cruise I looked at A/V and it was still in the water about an inch. I was afraid to check it at WOT as I was by myself. Thinking of raising it to the bottom hole and testing again. Would like to get the full 6k at WOT so my cruise numbers will be better. I figure if I raise it one hole and it blows out sooner i can go back down and start looking at a different prop. Anyone running the same boat and motor or have any input?
