My guess is the motor developes its hp at<br />about 5,300 rpm.It should run at least at that.<br /> A prop shop may have the reccomended max wot rpm.

Re: rpm's on 1988 force 125hp

I have a '88 Force 125HP on a 19' Capri. I recently installed a new Tach and tested both 17 and 19 pitch props. I settled on the 17pitch turning 5000 RPM at WOT and get about 38 to 40 MPH.
