Connor,
Glad to see you got her wet!
Your performance numbers are not too far off of mine. Those duoprops got me beat by a few MPH. Pretty much, where you indicate your speed in knots, I get the same in MPH only my max RPM is 4200 @ 32MPH.
Running into a chop, I find it best to trim bow all the way down for the most comfortable ride. As far as spray, I usually manipulate the tabs so as not to create any. In really nasty conditions, I may get a little over the rear quarter but I'm not sitting back there.
If I'm travelling a long distance in those conditions, with passengers back there, I'll put on the rear curtains for a completely dry ride.
You've got yourself a nice rig there. ENJOY! Ours is being pulled this week for the winter so the next 6 months are going to be long ones for me...
