I never really looked at that too much.

I can say with mine I cant get the EGT above 900 even fully loaded at WOT.

EGT seems to be based on load not RPM. If at WOT your boat is decreading in EGT then your load muct be going down.

At your cruise RPM are you on the "hump" of bow up, maximum drag, or are you over the "hump"

I run my boat at 2500 fast cruise, not because I like that RPM, but because I like the speed of 1415 kn ots which puts me "over the hump"
