"I had
been running a 13.25 x 17 and it would get maybe |
|
115 Johnson |
40 mph when
the fuel was low and I was in the boat by |
|
|
myself.
I was under the impression that this boat should be |
|
|
in the 45
mph range. |
|
|
Can anyone
advise of another prop tht may bring |
|
|
this up to
its maximum efficiency in speed. The 14 x 17 |
|
|
comes out
of the hole nicely at full throttle and allows you to |
|
|
trim motor
fully in one motion, but sacrifices top end speed. |
|
|
The 13.25 x
17 had better top end. Can anyone provide |
|
|
feedback as
to any manufacturer or pitch that may provide |
|
|
the mph
this boat is capable of. Would appreciate |
|
|
your
replies." |

Relatively flat water and little wind. I
