UPDATE -- Earlier this week the weather was pretty good in SC, low 60's and sunny so I decided to spend an afternoon at the lake with my kids. The motor ran great and seems to have a little better performance since I've put a few more hours on it. With me, 2 kids and 90 gallons of fuel the cruise was at 28mph at 3.83mpg. We took a short blast to WOT and got up to 53mph (speedo reading off my GPS via NEMA 2000) when trimmed up and wound out to 6,000 RPMs.
