[QUOTE="FuzzyGrub, post: 223621, member: 3438"] I have never been happy with proping to the lower end of the recommeded rpm range. While theroetically that would get the fastest wot speed, most of the time in has been the same or maybe 1mph faster. Propping to the high end (lower pitch) has such an improved holeshot, that I can't be without. But, I probably do more stop and go vs long distance running. Prop styles can be significant, depending on hull. I'll be interested in performance of the spitfire prop on jon boats. [/QUOTE]
