well i like to think its not normal because in the thick stuff i can only get about 800 rpm's out of it... not even enough to consider moving the boat even in 8 inches of water

Put enough resistant load on the prop and you will kill the motor or break something. Just sayin..Duckdon

can only get 800.. and yea i know it will break something but i just think it should be able to turn the prop in mud period? im pretty new with the mudmotor and really havent had that much experience in alot of mud but i just thought mabey it would turn it better being a 35 but i guess if its thick enough it will stop that big three blade.
