Default Re: yamaha 150 4-stroke prop?

Nice ride....however. That 150 is sitting low on the transom. You can probably move the motor up 1 or 2 bolt holes. You will probably run 1-2 mph faster. If it were me, I'd move the motor up 2 bolt holes and run the 19" prop. By moving it up you lessen drag and therefore let the prop spin faster. You could probably see 5200rpm's with the 19" or keep the 17" and hit 5800 or so. I don't know what the yam 150's max rpm is. 39 mph seems kind of slow especially when I hear guys run 200's and hit 60mph.
