Chris,
Thanks for the feedback - that's a nice return in outboard power! Did you get the collar from Honda, difficult to fix to the motor. I would think there would be much less cavitation with the greater pressure around the prop. Did you notice any real difference in noise level, if you can even remember?
Chow,
Art
