[QUOTE="kstrayhorn, post: 412763, member: 15815"] So you want it as far up/out as possible without preventing plane (find where it doesn't plane, then go back down one setting)? Recently put my outboard on a new boat and am having to revisit the issue. If you're interested, I have some input on those props. Nothing beats the original factory one, but good luck finding one of those. I got up in a dry creekbed during duck season and spun mine. Replaced with a ~$100 OMC/BRP replacement that didn't last 6 months. Granted, I probably wasn't as easy on it as I should have been, but I was not at all impressed with the quality. Recently went with the cheaper ~$50 Solas, and haven't had any complaints, but it's been in the water once. At least the powdercoating seems to be holding up better though, and it runs like it never has before. Just my experience, take it as you wish. [/QUOTE]
