New to boating, have a a 22 ft pontoon with a 75 hp Honda 4 stroke. My question is about speed and what my expectation should be. When running at approx 5000 rpm, speed is about 12-14mph max. this varaies due to wind, etc, but normally just two of us on. I'm seeing other pontoons fly by with a 60 hp leaving us in our tracks. I see other postings that say 50 hp on similar pontoon should do about 18 mph. We mostly coast around, just wondering what i should be seeing when i'm at approx 5000 rpm. need a little educataion here. thanks.
