But the extra speed came at the same 5600 RPMs, steady state, withou crazy trim- so that's good. And the cable steering is better (lighter). But I need a hydraulic helm.

I will check throttle adjustment tomorrow. If that is correct then I will bolt on the 15 pitch. If not, then I will adjust it then try a top speed run again.
