[QUOTE="The Gou, post: 346647, member: 13807"] Hello fellows, I am new here but not new to boating and fishing... I am replacing the prop on my 1983 16.5 foot Tracker with a Mariner 40 HP (Yamaha mfg.), it currently has a 10 3/8 x 14 pitch and I get 23.5 to 24 on a calm day WOT. A few years back it would easily do 27-29 and was not as revved up. Michigan Wheel Vortex recommend an 11 pitch but I am wary of taking too long to plane. I Was thinking 12 or 13 pitch, with a 10.5 diameter. What do you folks suggest? [/QUOTE]
