Nice looking boat. We have the same graphics on a 38/w700's and 6's. We are spinning 39 pitch 6 blade Herrings. Our rev-limiter is only 5300. With that boats rev-limiter at 5800, I guess you need a little less pitch.

Try contacting Dustin @ Whipple, they can up the rev-limiter on the 525's ecm, maybe they can re-program the 700's to get you a few more rev's.

Dustin and I have talked, he can do alot of things to the 700ecm's. Mercury is very conservative on their set up. But they are also protecting something, I suspect it is the transmission. Im fine for now, dont want to find out what the weakest link really is.

Rev limiter is 5600. These are not merc motors. Reggie and John took it out on a PR last week and Reggie decided to have his personal prop guy dial in John's boat. Reggie is very involved in this project.
Hopefully he wont!
