2006 Xpress X21 w/ 225 HPDI. Trophy 4 blade with 25 pitch prop. Hydrolic jack plate.
I brought it to a Yamaha mechanic and had my motor put on the computer before the summer starts so that I will know if anything needs looking into. Everything came back fine. I just had the plugs changed along with the water/gas separator filter. My problem is that when I have it opened up I am only hitting 5400 rpm's and my GPS is showing that I am only going 56 mph. I only found this out, because I just had a GPS installed. Before that, I had no idea how fast my boat was going. What I did know was that when my hot foot was 3/4 of the way down I was going at full speed. I had more peddle, but when I pushed it all the way down, I didn't get anymore performance. Can someone steer me in the right direction on how fast my boat should go and what do I need to do in order to get it running at full capacity. Thanks. My email is: nolliabed@hotmail.com
