Per Yamaha (as printed on their Propeller boxes): Rule of thumb, at WOT, one inch of pitch makes a 200 to 300 RPM change

mfg props come in 2" differences in pitch...read what's availible...that's the reason for the rpm range of 200-300...it's 2" of pitch...call a prop shop,i reccomend pat whelen,eastern prop 609-390-0448...he will gladly educate you on the basics of props...

The installer told me yesterday the recommended rpm range is 4700 to 5700 and the honda website says 5000-6000. The owners manual doesn't say.
