Well, I finally have a few hours on my new "baby" - a 2002 Crestliner Angler 1600 S/C with a 50 horse Merc EFI 4 stroke. So far we love it! My problem/question is that when I got the chance to open it up, I noticed two things:<br /><br />1) On flat water (in a slough with only a slight cross-wind) I could feel the tail get kind of "squirrely" (fishtailing) and this was not even W.O.T. and trim was all the way down;<br /><br />2) I can easily get an over-rev alarm at top end. The tach will shoot up past 6200!! <br /><br />The dealer set it up with an 11 pitch prop. Is this "prop-wash" or cavitation causing this?
