Can anyone tell what the horsepower is on a 1997 5.7L mercruiser motor? The boat is a 1997 searay sundancer 240. The reason I ask is I/m barely getting 30 knots on a 14.25 x 15 ss prop at 4600 rpm's and I think it should be able to go faster(one person in boat, full tank of gas). How bad is it for the engine to cruise at 4000 rpm's to get 25 knots?? Thanks for any input.
