2021 24LX ESP .125 300HP What to Expect WOT?

[gotnitro]

DejaWiz is correct with my prop, engine mounted in the lowest hole.
Clearly I’ve been very happy with the performance of the 175 at this point.

TY! If you don’t mind me asking, what RPM are you at WOT?

I'm going to assume 5900-6200 RPM

I don't recall off the top of my head but once again, DejaWiz is close. Ill have to check next time I open it up. Ill note the RPM and my trim setting.

Thanks for the data, I for sure have something going on since last trip out was the wife and I, 40 gallons fuel, flat water, zero wind and WOT was 32MPH
The engine sounds fine, the only thing I did notice was the motor takes a few seconds before it start to pee and the flow is not as strong as it should as my other 150HP.
I'm aware of weak pee flow but thinking that is on OLDER issue

I know that my 175SHO takes about 3-4 seconds to get the cooling water flowing, and thats normal per the Yamaha manual .

Today wasn’t the ideal conditions for speed trials but I said I would post my numbers

3 pax
28 gal fuel
Bow gate closed
Bimini in trailer position

41.6mph
6160 RPM
5 units of trim.

this usually gets me 43 when alone, less fuel, and gates open and Bimini down. But I’ll take this any day with the above mentioned load.
