Congrats on the new Boat.

How about joining us up in Chatham? I think 2-3 of us on the Island will be going.

Where did you find your new 18?

Sounds nice

Trayder, Thanks for the kind words. Chatham? You mean leave the island? Sounds great but can't commit yet. Found the boat at Point Jude Boats in Wakefield, RI. Owned by a sailboater who didn't fish. Decals in cockpit suggest it was fished in GA. It would be great if you could see it. Could use your opinion and advise on a few matters.
Thanks, Mike

I don't think a 15" prop will be enough, I had one with a 115 merc.

Egg Thanks for reply on prop.Boat came with 13.25 x 17. Would only turn 5000rpm and 30mph. With 3.75 x 15 (prop from 17 Proline) it turned 5300 rpm and 32 mph with better acceleration. What should I try Next? Power is 1990 115hp Evinrude.
