Did an oil change at the end of the season for 2024. Just ran it on the lake and oil pressure gets as high as 75 or 78. It does settle back down to the 50's or 60's but is that normal or what could be a cause?

Normal - oil pressure is affected somewhat by oil weight and temperature - more by temperature. Cold oil will produce higher pressure that will lower has the oil heats up. Anything in the 20-70 range is normal - higher when cold or at speed, lower when hot and at idle.
