I'm hitting all the IB posts, slow in the office. Your prop is not sized correctly, the spec is 16 x 17 so I would guess thats the reason, also seems like your fuel consumption is a little high and may also be due to the prop. I am turning 16 x 16 4 blade at 1 and 1/2 tranny, 3200 is about 21 nph, depending on tide and wind, averaging about 8 gals per hour fuel injected, so you are close to typical numbers, the other post was in MPH so I think he was close also.I have played with the props and the original spec is the best, i kept my 4 blade after adjustments because I spent so much on it
