Hello Group
I just picked up my 290 from the shop after getting drive work, gimbal ring replacement (many hours), tune up incl all filters and other misc work and while going down the river I noticed that at WOT I got about 37-38 mph on the GPS. I didn't get a chance to check the exact rpms but I know it was over 4000 and have to see what props on it. It had about 3/4 load of fuel and me does this seem normal? I figured it would be at least in the mid forties with twin 5.7 EFI's and Alpha I (Gen II) 1.62 drives.
