I thought I'd give a quick update on my results with the new Merc 60HP Command Thrust.
After testing a couple of different props, I settled on a stainless Vengeance with a 14 pitch. I noticed a significant power increase with this prop over a similar aluminum one that I tested. I know there were some skeptics on going with this engine choice but after 3 separate days in varying conditions my experience has been nothing but positive.

WOT is around 5500 RPM and 32 MPH. I am up on plane within a few seconds. This is with my wife and I, standard equipment on board and 15 gallons of fuel.

As I had mentioned previously where I am running I very seldom can run any higher than 25 MPH due to chop etc so the top end is fine for me.

Just thought I'd share my results for anyone else who is evaluating re-powers and has similar needs.
Thanks again to all for your input.
