Stable RPMs?

Should my Merc be completely stable RPMwise? What I mean is, if I've got it going, say 4200 RPM, the tach needle will waver just a bit up or down, between 50-150 RPM or so. Is this normal? If I were 'missing', wouldn't the movement be more than that?<br /><br />Thanks!

Re: Stable RPMs?

At WOT the prop height varies in the water causing a RPM flux
