Hello everyone. I took this motor to the water a few weeks back and found out that the max speeds I was able to get was 16mph. Upon inspecting the propeller, I found out that the factory one was the standard of 8.5x7.5. The one I purchased and installed now is a 8.9x8.5 and it should be able to get me to the 20mph mark. If it doesn't then I may need to buy the heavier one, but at least this video shows how to change the propeller and hope it helps you guys.
UPDATE: I sold my Saturn BB290 and purchased a Saturn ZK380 Kaboat, and the speed with the standard prop went out as it should on a motor like this. The BB290 's shape was what held me back.
