    6000 is about as far as I'd want to push a stock BlackMax. Some people revv them faster and don't seem to have any trouble but I think the redline on that engine is 5500.
    Is the engine on a jack plate? If it's really high, you will have trouble towing unless you lower the jack.
    The speed number sounds a wee bit low. What type of prop?
