Are you sure your tach is accurate?

OK, you're running great! Once you determine the top end rpm you are capable of with the boat trimmed, you will be able to decide if you want to rework these props or look towards different propellers.

You will need to determine were the peak HP is produced if your goal is top end. There is a range for your motor, the torque band and determining were the peak HP is produced will allow you to dial her in for top end , curise or whatever your goal may be.
