If there is a tide or chop, we can make 5.9, but usually cruise in normal conditions right around 6.0 at 2500. I suspect you have a smaller propeller (don't take any offense, ha!). But I have seen two 9.1s around Annapolis with very small folding props. I have a 2 blade (Martec) RH 16x10 folding prop. The cutless bearing was replaced (for the first time I think since '83) in 1997.
