Re: rpm

You are OK with that load. However the max OMC recommended rpms for the 110 (at least my 1987s) is 5500 rpm. You may be over spinning it with a lite load though.

Re: rpm

You should have no problems in that rpm range. These engines tolerate over revving better than lugging. Sounds like you have a pretty good set-up right where you are at.
