Default Re: Propeller options

Just got back from a ride, perfect day for it!!! 3850rpm, 30.2 knots on my Garmin plotter, full fuel, light load, trimmed out so it is just short of starting to porpious. Even at 3850, that motor doesn't sound like it should be spinning that fast. 2-stroke outboards sound better the faster you spin them. I have only run a Regulator with 225 4-strokes. This is my first experience with an I/O. I guess it is ok. At 3200, it is running 21-22knots. Plenty, still going to change the wheel.
