Not that anybody wants an update - lol - but we hit 76 degrees Thursday so we took our new boat out to finally play around with it some. While it will normally be in a slip at the cabin - we had to trailer to a nearby lake near home. All went well as far as trailering went - loading went better then my fears - My beautiful wife touched down on the trailer perfect on her third attempt. This was our first time trailering and we didn't realize how much these "drifted" as we got close to trailer - took some adjusting but not dents or scratches - I kept it trimmed down the entire time although I was dying to trim it up and see what difference it would make. I stuck to the book with only 60 second bursts at WOT - was fairly windy - 12 mph......peak rpm was 5672 and peak mph was 45.4.....our speed varied between 44.1 and 45.4 in these bursts......First pontoon so I am guessing the rpms look ok - my service guy said I was looking for 5800-6200 when trimmed up - this was when I was asking what prop they supplied - they put on a Mere enertia - does this look ok? motor was mounted in the very bottom hole? felt fine but i have nothing to compare it to - my highlight was turning this thing - That esp truly leans it into turns - we had a blast anyways - cant wait to finish the break in.
