So how fast does 600hp get you or do you need more hours on them before you can open it up?

As the motors break in the the RPM will increase by 200 to 400 RPM over what they are now.

Looking to get 5800 to 6100 RPM at finished break in.

Props that Yamaha selected are giving me great numbers to 5200 , so may need to go down a little in pitch to hit the preferred zone.

Boat will do 58 to 62 at that point.

Right now its running right about 55

No its MPH. the Yami gauges read it that way to show the MPG / GPH

Burn right now is right at 1.5 cruise .

and 1.2 at 5200.

It should break in at 1.6- 1.7 

and 1.2 at 5800.

but only time will tell.

I may get  a little less as I like to run some tab to keep the bow slicing through the water
