So then the question is...were the numbers taken going down river or up river? That can vary as much as 3 - 4 mph and can throw everything off so it is not accurate. 5700 is not all that far out of line with two extra people in the boat along with you, your gear and maybe some extra of the kids.
Is the side spray completely behind you and basically off the back 2 feet of the boat when trimmed and full speed or is it along the side of you?
How long have you had this motor? Is it fully broken in at this point?
