hey guys ..
new here and have lurked for a while on and off..in different areas.. but i have just bought (a month or so ago) a 18' 2000 manitou aurora it has a 2000 2 cylinder 2 stroke johnson 50 hp.. i was wondering if some one here could give me what my wot rpm's should be .. i am currently running a 13X11 prop.. edges are a little rough.. not bad though. thanks for all the help..

Re: wot rpm ????

Not 100% on this one but thinking you should be at or around 5,500 rpm. That seems a big prop for that outfit ??

Re: wot rpm ????

thanks for the reply.. i was thinking the same thing.. but if i push it wo it will go between 5800 and 6000.. .. what a bone head i am .. in the dark i miss read the prop.. it is a 13x11 i am also looking to get a little more top speed out of the motor.. i'll keep it pulled back to that range..
