Re: Speed of boat
Difficult to know for sure the true speed without<br />using a gps.If it seems to be just a little over planing speed it is probably fairly accurate.<br /> Without knowing real size and weight its Difficult to know where your at. You are probably running a little slow but could tell better with approx. weight of boat prop pitch, wot rpm.Tachs are available at Tiny tach for about 40 dollars.<br />Be sure to tell them it is a 2cylinder 2 cycle.<br /> Your motor may have an adjustable high speed jet.<br /> It would appear on the front of the carb.<br />Motor trim and weight distribution can affect<br />speed.<br />Check for wide open throttle.<br /> Anti ventilation plate should be approximately even with the bottom of the boat.If too low it will slow things down.If there is room to raise it<br />1 inch it could give you close to 3 mph.
