Jupiter Fl sandbar 75mph pass

Hey Jupiter, great number's! You have comfirmed what I suspected. You do have 1.75 gears and your tach is wrong. That beeping was probably not the overheat warning. By running the numbers, you were up against the 6000 rpm rev limiter which gives you a fast beep. I have had my 225 there a few times. If I can get my hands on a 27" Turning Point 4 blade, would you be interested? It may get you to 80 and get rid of the chine walk. Ask Wildman. boatman

Hey Boatman, it was definitly the overheat alarm. I watched my water pressure drop and temp gage hit the red zone!! Then the computer kicks in and reduces the rpm to under 3000...the water coming out the pee hole was smokin steam!!!
