Tend to agree with this. Will say that if you are under powered and run hard your engine won’t last nearly as long.

Nope, now over prop that under powered motor and run it hard there will be problems. WOT in the rpm range is the same under/overpowered boats. I am under propped right now waiting for the right prop one to come up used, need a 21p rev 4 if anyone has one.
220 hours 2012 Opti proxs 250, bought used with 184 on the clock with zero warranty repairs per merc.
