I have a 1980 26 ft Hourston Glascraft with an AQ 260 (chev 350)and a Volvo 280 DUO PROP outdrive. I'm running aluminum B5 props @WOT I'm
pulling just over 4000 RPM and going 39 MPH. Boat weighs just over 6500 LBS.
AM I over propped?
Thanks In Advance.
Cheers.

Most important thing you need to know is the maximum recommended RPM for your engine, and base prop selection on that.
