Thanks for the info. Did you try a 17" pitch?
What speeds do you get with the 15"
What kind of fuel consumption do you get?
Anything I should be aware of installing the engine? Any Gotcha's?
Also, do you know where the lifting ring / eye on this engine is? The dealer said it had one but I cant find it. It is still in its crate in the garage.. I am working on replacing my old Yamaha 175 (boy that engine was a lot of fun).

Thanks a lot for the replies!

Sorry for all the questions, I don't have anyone over here to ask about the boat much.
