I'm needing some advice on prop size...I've got a 1652 Alweld with a 50 hp mercury 2 stroke...8 inch jackplate...prop is 13×11...I believe it was on a pontoon before I bought it...took it out and ran it and would only get to about 30 to 32 mph and than it would seem like it was missing but it's not...I'm thinking I need to go to a 13 or a 14...suggestions please
 
Use the Prop Calculator here NOW ... https://turningpointpropellers.com/PROPWIZARD/ and put in YOUR hull/motor and actual/honest weights for all gear carried, or pick a hull that is closest in match for what YOU have. See what that calculator tells you that YOU should be using for your exact rig and how equipped.
 
I have a 1652 (crestliner,also has a tunnel), anyways,had a dt 40hp Suzuki and used a 14 pitch. Only have a 30hp now but by myself sometimes Ill switch to a 13 pitch, normally use an 11.
 
Not sure why it says no war in my post...not my doings,doesnt show up when I go to edit
