ok, guys,i just put this motor on my boat,and me and the wife went down to the ramp today and put the boat in the water, i let it run for a bit and once it warmed up it was idleing just under 1000rpm, so we then made sure everything shifted good which it did, and slowly started accelerating, she got up on plane no problem, once i was sure everything was running good, no lights,alarms or anything i wanted to see what it had, at 5000rpm, it was wide open, doing approx. 32 mph (GPS) the water was glass today, does this sound right?? i never had a 90hp before and i just thought it would be faster?? i dont want a speed boat or anything, im just curious?? the dry Lbs of this boat according to the original paperwork is 1125lbs its a 19ft grumman lake boat Vhull, here is a picture sitting at the dock. i have a stilletto stainless prop on it, and wasnt sure if it was propped right?? any info would be helpful. thanks
