    5000, but I do not believe the ratio is 1.61 on the lower. I think it is closer to 1.8 or 2. I'm running 48 mph @ 4800-5000. I was told it was a V8 outdrive when I got it, but the numbers weren't adding up. I changed props to gain some speed. Then I put an RPM gauge on the prop at idle and found out it wasn't a V8 outdrive.

    That's a very good price for that boat in our neck of the woods!
    Some lucky person will snap this up.
