You need to be around the 5600 rpm mark, that's a lot of revs to find. Dropping 2" wouldn't normally gain you so many. Is the engine set up correctly? Is the TPS calibrated correctly?

Not sure it was a evinrude dealer that originally fitted the engine. I’ll make enquiries about getting TPS checked I was all so thinking of lifting it a hole on the transom

The first place to start is look at the depth of the engine. if the engine is set too deep then you are wasting money by looking at props first.
