Yeah seems low, I'm also fighting a water pressure issue. May want to check line to gauge, one time mine was plugged with sand. When correct, mine is 23-25 at 3k, 35 at WOT. Good to see another Maine Fountain owner on here

I would unhook line at the gauge and blow back thru with compressed air. Blew a ton of sand out of mine one time......last time I let wife and friend use boat LOL. To answer about where I use my boat, mostly in the Kennebec river and off shore between Bath and Rockland. Friend of mine boats in Sebago alot, been meaning to make it up that way.

I usually put in in Damariscotta River, go down river and across, go to Richmond quite a bit. If you go to Boothbay do you go out and around or Back River/ Hells gates area?
