[QUOTE="davkrat, post: 337526, member: 13134"] Running the stock 10 pitch prop I'm getting 5050 rpm at WOT for 15 mph with myself, two kids and fishing gear. That's around 25% slip! Going to order the 4 blade 8 pitch tomorrow and see how it works. Afraid I'm overworking my motor running it that inefficiently at low RPM's. Might not increase top end but I would not be surprised to see some increase just based on how poor the current prop is performing but hopefully see more consistent performance between light load and a heavy load when my brother decides to tag along.
