Failed again

Went out for my second try at a shake down cruise.
the first one failed when the dealer installed the wrong lower unit on my boat and it was spinning in the wrong derection.
Well this morning was No 2 try, now the damn thing will not spin
over 2200 rpm a whopping 8mph.
I think a 800lb gorilla will be at the shop at 7:30 tomorrow morning when they open.
Boy am I

Just came pack from the shop,they are going to put it in the test tank and run it. I asked for a complete diagnosis test when it was brought in in January, but they could not do it with there computer. I told them to buy a computer that could . It did not go in with any problem other then to replace the lower unit that hit a piece of debris in the canal.

Sandman, I don't want to bash any one yet, but I run a Hydra-Sport and live on Cape Cod.
