Hi Bob,
Welcome to the club! I guess it was a good day for electrics as I snuck my Hunter 30 out the Gate today (something I wouldn't do a year ago - confidence increases..)
[sorry back-East folk - spring has arrived in California..
Your numbers are pretty good and the fact that you had the same speeds with/against the wind suggest your prop may be about perfect vs getting more pitch. I have a 13x13 and I lose a little oomph against wind and tide. For comparison, I get about 4kts@40amp (also a 48V system; boat is 9800lb displacement)
You join about 1/2 dozen known SF Bay boaters on this list.
Cheers,
-Keith
