    Re: Low fuel pressure

    Nice. What HP?

    Yeah You should pick up a couple of knots. At 2000 you should be around 75% if propped right

    Do you have the recessed tabs ? I closed the recess on mine and our new 48” tabs on the transom

    Is the waterline higher too, with less weight?
    Only lost about 600lbs overall in the engine room but with the new struts and larger shafts and props, its probably a wash.

    These are 650hp.

    And on the tabs, that's exactly what I thought I would do. Did you notice a big difference with those wider tabs?

    Mine had naturals and topped at 13/14kts. On a good day… so the old tabs were useless.
