But, I think I would put all stock in Alex and 1,300 rpm. I can't imagine water remaining in that tank at 50+ MPH prop speed.



If the boat show doesn't get the core together, then we need to pass and pick something that works for everyone..
Whitey has some ideas.
That was kind of the point of my post. I was curious what the process was in the tank

So the confusion comes from both advertisements as well as what our tour guides said, when the refer to "full power".

Full power (with everything on) in forward gear is quite different from full power stickstothedash. And he did confirm they run it up all the way, but they dont leave it there for 30 minutes.

Perhaps someone should phone ☎️ one of the new Cobalt 🚤 friends we met in Neodesha?

Otherwise we will have to wait on Liquid to chime in....... 😝

Alex also mentioned they only use one prop on dual prop out drives, and spend a lot of time in reverse to keep water in the tank stable.
