[QUOTE="thill, post: 422915, member: 4972"] A little more progress today... I finally got to test out my new prop today. The 11 pitch ran 22-23 mph... RPMs sound too high. The 15 pitch ran 24-25 mph... RPMs sound too low. The 13 pitch ran 27-28 mph, and RPMs sound PERFECT! This is a factory OMC prop that I found as new old stock. I was mainly trying to get the RPMs right, the extra speed is a bonus. I haven't even tried tweaking the engine trim for max speed yet. Amazing what the right prop can do for a boat. Slowly but surely, this is turning into a sweet ride. -Tony [/QUOTE]
