    WOT RPMs? i would think 19p is too much for a 70hp motor pushing a heavy 17' hull like an excel & that you need to be in the 15-17p range, i'm running a 15p stiletto to 38mph @ 5800rpms on a 1860 alumacraft w/ a 60hp yamaha 2 stroke on a bob's jack plate

    The gear ratio of that Suzuki needs a 19p to run that same speed. Your 60 and a Suzuki is apples to oranges when talking about pitch
