good one Pat. 🤣🤣
Well I got it out yesterday and was having some console gps problems, but my navionics app said i got to 66-67 mph at around 58-5900 rpms and I probably could have gave it a little more. That is with 2 people and 3/4 tournament load. I am more than pleased with that type of speed for where I live since most of the lakes we fish are 4000 acres or less. Curious if you prop guys think that sounds about right. Like I said, I wish the graph was working right and I didn't have to use my phone but it is what it is. Tachometer seemed to work fine and I'd guess my Prop to pad was about 3.5-4".
Until you can find out what WFO is any advice would be a wild guess.

I have the sister to your rig! IMG_0078.JPGIMG_0079.JPGIMG_0083.JPGIMG_0088.JPG
Under the drivers console, there is a raised area that isn't present on the passenger side. Is this for install of a foot throttle if I would choose to add one?
Thanks,

Yes, that is exactly what that bump in the floor is for. Make sure you know what length screws to use to mount the hot foot. Also, I highly recommend you put a dab of 3m 4200 on the screws to prevent water intrusion. What is going on with the transom on the port side right next to the motor in pic #5 ?

Thanks, I already have had it on St Clair twice (which is why I'm asking about the foot throttle), and hope to make it up there more in the summer months now that I have my own boat. If you see me out there come say hi! We have been going up in May for 10+ years. Pretty nice place to break in the boat.
