What? Now your saying 25-50mph????
Ohh boy, I realy don't care how fast your boat is...
All my boats run low 40s to mid 60s and all verified by gps
all low kv motors and good volts = winning combos that last
You were making an assumption of a ''problem'' based on my estimate of speed to another person...............you said something was wrong if its 30ish.............geez, i was replying to OSU's question and you jumped in with your ''somethings wrong'' comment, i didnt pm you to tell you the speed out of the blue......once again, based on an off the cuff guess of speed for the guy. And yes, now im saying between 25-50 to be certain my estimate is correct for you to critique me with. I'm not ''certain of 30ish'' but im certain of my range, which includes 25,26,27,28 etc. pick one. And i do run low kv motors with high volts as im sure you have read...so i guess i have ''winning combos that last'' also. Why would you volunteer the speeds of your boats, no one asked...........do you think i care any more than you? Got any vids of your Fast boats?

oh man, IMO your set up makes no sence
big boat with KB45 motor spinning 35,000rpm with a 45mm prop?
should be going 50s +, and if its only getting 30mph something is wrong with that kind of rpm
your guess of 25-50mph is a huge difference that cannot be taken serious IMO
high kv with lots of volts makes for smoke in boats this size with amp hog motors
and 30mph is not a winning combo, boats that size need to run 50+ to win on race day lap after lap
I have a 29" race boat that does right at 60mph with a 45mm prop, running a 2300kv motor on 4s (34,000rpm)
my UL-1 does 52mph on a 43mm prop running the 2030kv motor on 4s (30,000rpm)
