I took delivery of my QCW 2575 on Saturday and started the engine break in procedure on my Yamaha F250. When I reached the point where I could go to WOT for short periods of time, I tried it and the boat (with 4 adults and 2 kids and about 40 gallons of gas) very quickly pegged the tach at 7,000rpm and I quickly back off as I did not think it was supposed to rev that high. Is that too high?? I will call the dealer this morning and see what they say. The engine came with a Yamaha prop, the Salt Water Series and the diameter is 15.5" and the pitch is 17 and is one of the props recommended for the engine on the Yamaha prop selection guide.
By the way - LOVE THE BOAT - the comfort and the ride was better than I expected - good job Bennington!
