hello
i own a boat with a 115hp 2006 mercury 4-strokes outboard on a 2.70mX6.95m which is made of wood and fiberglass so it kinda fat
the thing i recently started wakeboarding so i need to know if i have to "tweak" it a bit
even when not wakeboarding when i push down the throttle , it always starts off slow, it is only when i reach about 4-5 rpm it will start gaining speed, im not sure whats the fastest she goes cause i dont have a speedometer
but according to my GPS and it says about 25-30 mph at maximum
obviously and pulling a skier on the back it will go slower
is it enough for wakeboarding ? if not , will changing the prop to a different size make a difference ?
btw i dont know what size of prop i have on it now, i will check it the next time il be on the boat
