Thanks Freebie. I did the test twice and both times I had half tank of gas and 3-4 on board. I did play with trim but did not even think about position of my trim tabs. I will test again and make sure they are all the way up.

Anyone know what happened to thehulltruth site? I figured I would post there as well for some feedback but I can't access the site?

you should test with just yourself in the boat with a light load(this means not a ton of gear and less than a half tank of fuel). in that case you would want to be closer to the high side of your range. anything over 5500 should suffice.
