Default Re: Propeller options

Hi Kahuna, my boat used a 19" pitch prop and I could reach about 4200-4300 rpm fully loaded, not the best but close enough. This gave me about 32 mph again fully loaded with the Bimini up so it's not a bad setup. Unfortunately the motor seized up this spring for unknown reasons. The mechanic told me these models tend to do that once in a while but I can't see why, especially when the oil and temperature were always OK.

By the way, are you in Hawaii? I'll be going to Oahu in Dec. to visit my son and grandkids, if by any chance you're close I'd like to see your rig if possible.
