Yeah couldn't be happier with the install, guys did a great job.
Running the 15 x 14, has a very slight cup. I spin 5200 RPMs at WOT and get around 30 knots WOT. Shop is confident that is the right prop based on RPMs and my cruise (4000 RPMs, 21-22knots, 2 nm per gallon). I might have the prop tuned and add a little more cupping to it. Other than that, the prop is spot on for my application. |

Over the winter I had the bottom blasted and barrier coated, it definitely needed it. Took it out a couple of times now, gained 1-2 knots at cruise and WOT. Turning 4000 rpms I am now around 23-24 knots in good conditions, efficiency went up a bit too, no consistency around 2 nm or higher. Same prop, no changes at all to engine/drivetrain setup.
Highly recommend Mike Nasuti (MTNK) out of Rockland, MA if anyone needs their bottom done. |

Did you raise your console? Do you have starboard/PVC around the bottom of the console? Your T-top is also mounted to the console? Do you have more pics of the console and top? Interested in the console closed, side and front view.
Thanks! I'm in the process of restoring a 76 inboard. |
