Thanks all,

I own the Parker that my buddy Fishsmith is inquiring about. I have looked at the Yamaha Web Site and found the following specs for the F225:

Notice the Range is 5000-6000RPM for the F225.

Also, the following URL is a performance overview of the F225 with a 2520 Parker, that is heavier than my 2320.

I have occasionally seen the engine run in the 6000 to 6100 RPM range, but for the most part WOT is 5900. The dealer claims that it is normal and if there is an issue where the boat is over revved that some automatic option will kick in and bring the throttle down.

As for the prop being oversized/undersized, this concerns me as I have heard that this delaer has done something similar in the past. How do I tell if I have the proper prop for my engine?

Again, thanks for the responses.
