Location: Minneapolis		I just got my new Tuffy 1760 with 150 Suzuki. I'm just at the end of the 10 hour break-in. With just me and a 23" pitch prop I got 5500 rpm and 48 mph at WOT. Going to an 18" x 21" prop got the rpm up to 5600 and dropped the max speed to 45 mph.

For those of you with 1760s and 150 hp motors, what props are you running? The Suzuki is spec'ed at 5000-6000 max RPM, but all the boat tests have it close to 6000.

Thanks. The Tuffy is a big step up from my old Alumacraft Navigator 165! Ordered in April 2022, so it's been a long wait.
