I have a 2 stroke 1990 Johnson on my 18 foot bass buggy pontoon. I am running at a high elevation lake about 8000 feet. the motor runs great idles fine sounds like it revs to about 4000 rpm tachometer works is sporadically. When the tachometer is working and I'm on the water it reads about 3000 RPM. The problem is the boat will only go about 5 mph with the fish finder gps.
Could I have a prop slipping? or is there anything else I need to look at. or maybe wrong size of prop. this is the first year I have ran this boat?
TIA Doug
