Picked up boat with new 60 etec on it Friday. Engine runs great and pushes the boat at approx. 34 mph. I will have gps hooked up this weekend and advise real speed. Running a 17p prop and 5500 rpm. Boat is a little slow to plane with 4 people in boat. Approx. weight 450 lbs (2 adults and 2 teenagers). Should i go to a smaller prop?
