My 15 hp merc has a 9x9 prop now, on a 15.5' open v tinnie, total weight is never more than 900-1000 lbs with the largest load. new to me set up, last summer I'm thinking I need a prop with more pitch (there is a 9x10 1/2 listed for this motor) because at around 7/8 to full throttle (maybe...

I bought this boat last spring I want to repaint the interior of this mid 70's princecraft. As you can see it's faded out and not flakey in any way. I put new seats on last summer, and raised the transom for a long shaft motor. I don't want a piece of art, just a good functional paint job...

Hi there, newby here, but been lurking a bit. I just picked up this 16' princecraft, on a nearly new trailer, and a old 74 9.9 Evvy. the motor may be beyond help, no spark, but decent compression I think ( will put a comp tester on it when i drag it home). I felt the boat/trailer was worth the...
