Default Re: Inboard prop size

I changed out my prop over the weekend to the 17 x 17 3 blade and what a difference. I am now running at a solid 20 knots at 3000 rpms. I think I may need to drop to a 16 pitch because my top rpm on the motor I could achieve was only 3900. I also had a noise and vibration that I have found to be the cutlass bearing. This should be fixed this weekend and then I will see what my top end rpms are and decide about the prop pitch. Thanks a lot Craig for helping me through this.
