 Re: omg help me !!
If your doing 15 mph with a 10 hp engine your doing great!!! Your getting 1.5 mph for every horsepower! Thats unheard of! Leave it alone and run it!

 Re: omg help me !!
No chit, some people don't get 15mph out of an 18 horse. What size boat are you running? send us pics of the motor, we're all picture whores here dammit.

 Re: omg help me !!
Ya'll must be running some really narrow boats, there ain't no way you will get those speeds out of a 48' or wider boat.
