Glad you were able to get the new boat out and check it out, too bad the main motor isn't working right, is it the origional motor? Just wondering if the thottle cable is out of adjustment, not allowing the full travel. Have you tried removing the engine cover and manuelly moving the thottle or at least seeing if it travels to the end of the stop? When I got the new motor for my boat it did the same thing, it turned out it was the prop, after replacing the prop, it was able to do better but I ended up having to take it to a prop shop to get custom fitted for my boat. It envolved shaving off even more of the prop, so it would be a better fit for my boat size. I could have bought a smaller prop but then there was the danger of over reving the motor at WOT.
