Thanks, spareparts. I'm only using WOT rpm as a guage of whether it's under or over propped. I want the WOT rpm slightly higher than Merc spec so it's not lugging at cruise speeds. In sloppy seas, I have to throttle down to 3000-3500 rpm and the motor doesn't seem happy there with the current prop.
