[QUOTE="JMichael, post: 288787, member: 7544"] You would need a tach in order to find out what the rpm is. One like this or similar would do the job. https://www.americanparagliding.com/tinytach.htm If the motor has the wrong prop on it, it could affect how fast it gets on plane, top speed, etc. My brother has a 14ft with 18hp motor and with 500lbs of weight in the boat it will make 21mph. So even though I'm not 100% sure what you should expect out of your boat/motor, I would think it would go faster than that with so little weight in the boat. [/QUOTE]
