Mine runs 42-43 every hit. Its completely stock with a balanced stock prop. Strut is dead flush. I tried as high as 1/8" up with no noticeable change.
Hmm, I'll definitely have to GPS mine, it *looks* slower than that to me, but it is possible it's just the size throwing me off like I said. As for your strut being dead flush- are you talking about flush with the bottom of the sponsons? If so, did you have to open the slot up in the strut to get it down that low? Mine will not go that far down, I'll have to open it up a bit but I do have it as low as it will go with a couple degrees up thrust to it to try to loosen it up on the water a bit.
