Prop ?
Moderators: bman, Chalk, Tom Keels
Another prop question.
I just got a 2002 Key Largo 176 with a 90 Yammy 2 stroke. Loaded down with 3 people and a full tank of gas WOT = 4500rpm at 31-32 mph.
From what I have read here at WOT I should be turning around 5500rpm. I have no idea what the pitch is on the current aluminum prop. I wasn't sure to start with a 15 or 17 pitch.
Any suggestions?

Nothing makes a fish bigger than almost being caught.
