Post subject: | RPM question |
My 23 is running 3310ish with just me on my 1638 gd boat. It has 11 hours on it. Ive read I should be in the 3600 range empty. Do I need to adjust governor some. Out of water is 39and some change |

btw all floatation has been cut out so boat isn't waterlogged and no hooks in the bottom |

I'd want to be in the 3800 range with a load, you can run it up around 4K light and 42-4300ish on the governor. You probably need tuning and maybe a prop change to get you there. |

I put one of PVT rev kits in my 23 gdlt and set oow rpms at 44-4500, I also ran a BBlades 9x7 prop with decent results. |

I need to call B&S with my engine info, 18hp Vanguard, and find out what RPM's the motor is supposed to turn. Installed new shaft , seals, prop last year but haven't had the opportunity to run it on a boat, but that is going to happen shortly. Tach shows 3700 Rpm's with no load, and reading here that looks like it might need to be tweaked a little. Looking for opinions from folks, thanks. FYI, I installed the GoDevil factory prop, I believe 9x4. |
