After playing with the setup over the past few weeks the boat can now reach 80km/H. Mainly, I adjusted the position of the battery packs, PROP angle + PROP height.

Doing good,
What motor and prop are you running ?
What are your temps on the setup ?
It sound and looks like you could go bigger on the prop.

I am running the stock motor
ACE Ripper 1500 KV brushless motor

PROP Size D47 x P1.40

Do you think with the amount of the power of my boat, will this PROP work ? or any suggestions.....
I am thinking to use a three blade prop to gain more pushing force and rid of the cavitation issue. Do you think it's ok?

D52~D55 x P1.4,

I didn't measure the temp. I will be trying on the three blade prop next time............
