at 5300 rpms with 1-2ft seas with a half tank, 4 people the boat would do right at 40. Think you could a little more out of it, maybe 45 if there was zero wind and a lighter load.

You should be able to get 6,000 rpms max with the 4 stroke. Is 5,300 the max rpms you could get out of the motor.

If that is the case the you should be fine. I am impressed that the 150 can push a boat of that weight at that speed. I have the same motor (150 Yamaha 4 stroke) on my boat and it has a lot of power/speed.
