[QUOTE="Zum, post: 88096, member: 349"] I'm not sure what your boat is but in order to get a proper prop. you need a tach. Every outboard has it's optimum rpm range and you don't want to run to high or low on your rpm's;at wide open throttle. If you increase your pitch,speed should be more and your rpms will go down(somewhere around 200rpm per pitch). Reverse that with a lower pitch,less speed,higher rpm's. So going from a 9.25 dia.to a 10 dia and the same pitch probably won't increase your speed. Correct me if I'm wrong but I think in 1 revolution a 10(pitch)prop.will move 10 inches.? [/QUOTE]
