He's not pushing the trailer
The 5200 is a bit low.Should be about 5500.Dropping to a 17 will raise the RPM to 5500.
Not sure the speed will go up but your gas economy will get better.
You sure the speedo is right??
The stuff they put in these boats isin't the best quality.
A hose could be pinched off?
My speedo compared to my GPS is off about 3-4mph.
45 with an 80????? On a boat like yours?Sounds like a fishy story??
The type of bottom will have a lot to do with 45/80? A whaler type boat really screams with lower HP motors.
My dad had a whaler with a 70 and it did 40 and used very little gas.
You leave the plug in while it's out of the water?
Getting to the foam can be tricky? My boat,I'd have to cut a hole to get to the foam.
I cut up a boat just like the one I have. It had an extra 600+ pounds from saturated foam.
The owner left the plug in all the time.
One more thing!!! It's only a 125.Go faster= more horses!!
