- 305 Mercruiser MPI, Bravo 3 2.2 ratio, 22p
I have 2007 240 sundeck with a 305 MPI with bravo 3 2.2 gear ration with 22pitch props. I am have an issue with top speed. The boat has a great hole shot and can hold plane easily at 15 mph, but I am crusing at 3600 rpm at 25mph and i am maxing out at 4650 at 32mph. According the calcuatlors that's 27% slip. It seems like everyone eles with this setup is running the same rpm or more but faster. The props are clean with no dings, i have tried every trim position with no change. The boat has trim tabs from the factory with a smart craft thur hull transducer. There's nothing eles installed on the boat. I did paint the props with a prop paint and notice it immediately came off on the edges of the prop. Boat had same issue before the paint, also there is a piece missing off of the skeg
. Any thoughts? Thank you.
