Re: Recommended rpm

If you do not have a jackplate, the prop/pad measurement is irrelevent as your motor is fixed to the transom. All you can do is trim to maximize rpm/mph. Prop size can change top end and holeshot approximatly 200 rpm. If you run a 24 and change to a 25, your rpms will go down 200 or so and your top ...

Re: Recommended rpm

First, don't adjust anything. Do you have a set of rabbit ears? Place them over the water intake of the lower end, turn the water on and turn your motor on. Keep it at idle. The RPMs should be around 600-800. If that is the case, then it is set correctly and when turned off just rests at the 1000 ma...
