...I almost forgot. If you go onto the official website for Suzuki marine, they have "boat tests" for each suzuki motor, including the 300hp. They have a test for one single motor application on a 24 ft. Pro Line which is similar in size and weight to our beloved 23 ft hulls. The pro line weighs approx 3400 lbs. They tested it with a 16" X 18.5" (diam./pitch) 3-blade prop. Check it out. It is educational... I would think that it is too big of a prop judging from this test, but I am no expert.

Thanks Steve. I had looked at the website and noticed that the prop pitches were a lot lower than what my mechanic had suggested initially. I will pass that on to him before he orders the prop. I have a buddy with a 25' Dusky that just put on a 300 and he's running a 17.5 pitch prop.
I will be sure to post performance numbers when she's up and running.
