Default Re: 20SF with a 150 ETEC numbers

The Viper is actually the old OMC RAKER propeller revisited, with greater rake progression, more efficient cupping geometry, and more aggressive initial angle of attack on each leading edge. It's a pretty good propeller, but not really a sternlifter. It's more of a bow-lifter, with slightly increased rake progression to provide more whole-hull lift.
