Can someone help me?I got this boat in march,I've had it out about 4 times so far.It's got a Mercury 1974 850 85hp,but the boat is rated for 80hp.Will this hurt anything?It also had a 2 blade brass prop on it when i got it.I changed the prop to a 3 blade SS Quicksilver thur flow lighting prop with a 19" pitch. Also the motor runs good except when i reach full throtle:confused::confused: it bogs down a quits,you can run it anywhere but wide open.If you can help i would be greatfull. THANKS!
