Prop talks have got me thinkning. I want to test a few props out and was wondering if anyone knew where I could find some merc props for testing? The place I thought did it no longer does
I’m currently running a 21p on my 115 opti with a 17.5′ boat. Don’t pay much attention to rpms but think I’m only at 5100-5200 and only getting 38-39 mph w/ 3/4 tank of gas, 2 people, trimmed just before that roaring cavitaion sound and loss of some speed. I can hit the optimum rpm but slip in speed a little because the prop losses push so am I right in assuming I can drop a pitch or 2?
