hi, motor is running good enough i think, i'm more concerned about the spray pattern at the back..doesn't seem quite right. this is a short clip of me 220lb and my mom ~110 lb @ WOT in a 12' aluminum. alone i get 38km/h max speed. now i don't have the tilt pin in, it's been lost, could this cause it to not sit right? thanks

First. Get the tilt pin back and adjust it. Second. You go to the front of the boat and let Mom drive and see what happens. :joyous:

26 mph. is zippin' right along for a 15 hp...agree with boobie on the tilt pin...a more even weight distribution would help, esp. in any shallow water situations
