210 FSH Sport power

[Ealex79]

I have the same engines and I am at 574 feet above sea level where I boat, give or take. With 3 in the tube I have pulled them straight at 30 mph once, no turns, with more to give in the throttle. I don't personally like going that fast, wasn't watching. I have pulled up two wakeboarders or a 250lbs slalom skier with ease, no issue.

Your engines can do it. I would bet it is the elevation.

Are you cavitating?

That’s sounds like great conditions. I’m at 5700 feet so I’m sure it is the elevation. Cavitation?

So I live in Colorado and purchased a 2021 fsh210. With 4 on the boat I'm able to pull skiers and tubes, not crazy fast on the tubes. I end up hitting about 26 mph with a full tank, drinks in the coolers.... if I keep 2 on then i get up to about 28mph.
stock impellers and nothing else done. I have not had a chance to take it to sea level but its on the list. My goal is to change the pitch of the impellers and see how it goes. Rolling the dice a little with the expense of the change. I have to remind myself why I purchased this boat and not a ski boat. It's meant for fishing with the option of some water sports. the take off when dragging a 180 lb person is a little struggle but not the part that makes it difficult. The hard part is getting up on a wake board. since there is not high anchor point, it takes more muscle to fight the drag. I don't have an issue getting up but other do. The cover over the console is straight mounted to the floor and is not designed to take the pull of a boarder.
Everyone up here loves the boat, it has alot of room for people to walk around.

Another member here bought his boat from I believe the dealer in Loveland. As part of the purchase they swapped out his OEM impellers for high altitude impellers and that person reported 46 mph alone in the boat on glassy water at 4500‘ which is moving pretty good. If you want I can get the info for you if you are interested.

That’s pretty good on the rpms! When I’m at 4800’ with two people, full fuel and gear I can only get 6500-6600.
