[QUOTE="Sub_Elect, post: 106584, member: 1014"] You are correct, leaving rpm on the table will leave performance on the table. If memory serves, that motor needs to be at 5500 to 6000 rpm. I don't know if it will harm anything but I would want to be in the WOT rpm range, when wide open, during breakin. I would go back to the dealership and request around 2 pitches lower. Don't worry about getting the most out of the boat until your breakin is done. Thats when the fun will begin. A stainless prop will be the fastest. With the best hole shot. Use that jackplate a ease of adjustability to the max. It does indeed sound like your motor is too low. Just for reference, on a 60 mph boat, the AV plate should be 2.5 to 3" above the bottom of the boat when the hull is level and the AV plate is level. [/QUOTE]
