Thanks for the reply Phil.
I'll speak with my local evinrude mechanic to see about getting it raised up and set to the 3rd hole. I think I'd be comfortable doing the glass work and mounting but I don't have an engine hoist. There is a stainless steel prop on it now, not sure of its specs but it is pretty beat up probably from oyster beds in the Chesapeake Bay before we got it.

WOT ran about 33mph last spring, sounds like that can be improved. All summer I've been running it with family and small kids on board so haven't opened her up WOT since. I'll have to sneak out myself once I get the new EMM installed (which is a different issue).
