You changed the prop.

Did you strip all the paint before adding new coat?

That may have resulted in negating the rpm increases.

Given the compression, that WOT speed is not bad.


The bottom was sanded smooth professionally and given two new coats of paint. I had it done at a marina here, the only one local doing bottom painting.

Thanks for your opinion Phil.
