My salesman was trying to get me to put a 50hp on my 1000 pound boat and i said no way i need a 70 because i'm going okay here we go this thing is going to fly!!! No. I can only get it up to 35 with just myself in it after the saleman said it would go 50mph with a 60hp. I also posted a question on a forum saying this guy had a 60hp on it and it went 48mph. The redline is 5800 and I'm only tacking 5000rpm no matter what the circumstances. So far I'm not too impressed with my boat. Any suggestions will be highly appreciated.

could be alot of things prop size where its mounted.. does it clear the transom? is it cavitating? at full throttle does if run at a constant beat or is it laboring?
