Was curious what a good long term planing cruise setting would be for a 40hp 4 stroke. WOT is about 6,100 RPM. My motor is a bit anemic for the hull, but does just fine once out of the hole on a plane. I tested it with 600lbs of people and it would cruise nicely about 4500rpm. Im used to being gentle on motors - can these be run at WOT long term or is that only for short bursts? Good cruise RPM?
