Boat is new to me and the boat and I are in a “shakedown” phase.

Do you have the sticker on the motor that gives the WOT rpm range? It might not be there anymore.

What rpm and speed are you currently getting at WOT?
 
I have not found a sticker with WOT RPM info...yet. I will be on boat later today with an inspection camera and borescope to find the hard to reach ports I will need to find to winterize. Will also be looking for serial number.
I have been easy on the engine. Do not trust tach (or any gauges) yet. Approx. 3/4 throttle 3000 RPM 32 mph reported by GPS.
 
I would think 4600. Info off the metal tag by the starter would be helpful. Digital timing lights are very accurate for rpm's, and cheap too.

Thanks. Motor is squeezed in there. Have not gotten to the tag yet. Will let you know what I find.
