A suggestion - ours was a pig in light air until we put a Maxprop on it - then watchout. Prior to the Maxprop we needed 15 kts of wind to get moving, afterward we were ghosting along in 2 knots. I thought the new prop would allow us to go faster and was surprised at how much it helped with little wind (I hate turning on the engine).
Congrats and enjoy!
