Any hep would be much appreciated.

Performance – 250 lb. partner, me (190), full tank of gas, live wells full, tournament gear, cooler full, air 68 degrees water temp 65degrees. Water pressure and engine temp are good at both of the below settings.
70-71 mph @ 5850 with jack plate set at 2-3 and full trim 5.5
