I have an 84 Catalina 251 that
I have an 84 Catalina 251 that I'm trying to sell. The 305 was replaced long ago with a Chevy 350. I've had this motor at 4500 rpms and it seems not to plane at all and tops at about 13.8 mph. It has a stock reman'd prop on it. The bottom was recently painted with no growth. The trim tabs are fully down.... I'm plowing tons of water. Someone please help !! Everyone I take for a ride questions the "slowness" of the boat.
