There is a prop calculation which I dont have handy. And then you look at the rev chip in the limiter. If the top speed is protested an official will go out and run the boat with the owner.

Ted hows it going? I understand the prop calc and chip but is hull efficiency taken into account?

Hey Shane, Whats new? We do the prop calc thing, and then run the boat in case any adjustments are to be made. Obviously the slip is different on most boats. Call me if you want we can disscuss. Smitty
