I have a 1648 sea ark flat bottom with a 85 Johnson 30hp. Right now I have a 10.1x 13p SS prop that turns 5950rpm @29mph with just me in the boat. I have a 24v system up front for my riptide 80 as well as a cooler to store gear. It jumps up on plane fine. I am trying to decide if I want to go with the Solas new Saturn SS 10x14 or 10x15 due to my motor over revving with my current setup. I am afraid the 15p may be a hair too much and it would put me below the 5200rpm mark if I have another soul onboard. Any suggestions or opinions on my setup?
