Hello,
I am brand new to our 2007 Parker 2320sl 225 Yamaha 4 stroke on a transom bracket, and on top of that, being an I/O guy for years now, I am brand new to Outboards also.
We are getting 29mph @5100rpms at wide open. It seems as though we should be getting a bit better top end speed, I think? We were testing on calm water, 1/2 tank of fuel, 4 adults and minimal gear. The hull is bottom painted. The prop is a 19T. Motor is mounted on the top holes of bracket.(furthest down it can be)
We were not using a lot of tabs, but we also did not trim up the motor much not being used to having to do that. Even without trimming up, does that sound normal?
Thank you for any help, we are new with this boat and need advice!
Jake
