Winter is over and I took it out for a spin!

Removed Whale Tail....
New prop= 15p stainless 3 blade Solas
RPM @ WOT = 5900-6000
Speed= 30mph (trimmed up)
people= 350lbs Me+2 kids
Hole Shot= Instant!
I assume the boat is not waterlogged...I can move the ass end while on the trailer easy...

I am fine with the speed but 30mph (GPS) seems slow compared to many other posts I have read. Is everyone lying or do I have something wrong?
