Default Re: prop size

Thanks for the reply Steve. My name is Keith. My boat is called the WildWill after my younger brother Will who died last year from complications of Spinal Bifida. He was 35. I told him that the SeaCraft will always be named the WildWill. I think I will try a 19 pitch also sometime this year. The 21 pitch that is on now might have been a prop from our other SeaCraft that had two 165hp I/O's. I have a feeling it's the wrong prop. Sometimes after running to spot to fish and shut her down she acts as though she's flooded when you go to start her again. I had a rebuilt carb put on that helped the problem but I think the engine is luggin also. I'll let you know what the numbers are when I get her in this year. I love the I/O's except for the lack of cockpit room but that is not enough reason for me to switch to outboard with bracket. Thanks again, Keith
