Jetting for high altitude?

My primary use for my soon to be finished outboard rebuild is well above sea level. Local lake is above 3300 feet, and most anything within reasonable travel is above 1500 feet. Main jets are 65C, idle 30. Presumably (?) they're calibrated for sea level use. Thoughts?

I forgot you're about a thousand feet higher than here. A couple of hours north and northeast of here it drops another 400 ft. Where I usually boat, half hour west of Edmonton, the lake is about 2500 above sea level.

How's the build coming along?

The build progresses, but more slowly than planned due to numerous distractions. Back at it this week. Got the pistons assembled at least.
