I Bought new prop is 16x13. I cleaned by hull now ı run 29knots it is very good for me,
but I check three times first start my engines and ı saw 80degree engine temperature I going to the beach for swimming 2miles away
my engine is max run 17knot when Im going,I stay 1 or 2 hours in the beach when I return to our marine, I run 29knots
I dont understand what is it?why our engine is not running 29 knots when I start my engine firstly,is it to do with the engine overheating
can you pls give information?

I think you have an engine problem. I have had similar problems with my boat (5.7l V8 - 8.5m). Twice I have cleaned inside the distributor cap and made the boat go faster.
I suggest you check the engine: Spark plugs, distributor cap, plug leads, timing, carburettor etc.
