Is 5220 close to redline for the Sea Pro version?Cruising back from Sangster at 35mph, 4140rpm and 3.25mpg. Then opened her up for a bit of a rip, 43.5mph, 5220rpm and fuel not so good at 2.15mpg

Close to it for the 225. APM told me I was in the sweet spot at 5300 with the prop. Said it should be between 4800-5600

Secondary steering…check. Any more ideas lol.Let us know when the autopilot, secondary steering station, additional chart finder, are installed on back. Usually follows this project unless your cheap lololol.
Changed uflex front steering helm to tilt and put the none tilt helm on transom for rear steering. FYI I didn’t do the install. The guys at APM in Alberni did the job. The iCloud link is a quick video of steering the motors.

Yep know that was going to happen. Let me know when you get that additional chart plotter . That usually comes next after wheel goes on.
Yeah one of best things I did on my boat was that wheel when I podded it along with autopilot. The only thing right now I wish I had was electronic throttle control for kicker at helm also.
With all this fishery closure stuff looks like I am keeping my boat, and not upgrading. Will be doing my floors next and AIS.
