 Prodrive Speed help
I recently purchased a 1854/32hp prodrive X rig. The boat is super clean and the motor was not running. I now have it running 4200rpm wide open 1300idke rpm out of the water. Once in the water I got 22mph at 3750rpm with 2people. And 11-14mph with 4 grown adults and cooler/gas. Roughly 950pounds. I was not able to break over just plow. Do these speeds sound normal for a 32hp stock prodrive? Can i possibly change props to help get the load on plan? Shouldn’t i try any mods or should I just look for a 36/40hp motor to bolt on the frame?


Thank you for any kind of help. I am new to mud motors.

Speeds probably about right for that load

32 is underpowered for that set-up.

Don't have this discussion again. Go chime in on the one everyone else commented on. He double posted.

You're fine, was referring to the guy trying to help. Double posts happen, just no point in diluting the discussion by separating them
