    I have a 2000 Crestliner 182TS and just bought a 2007 Etec 90 tiller to hang on it. Looking for some advice on a prop. It had an Evinrude 70 4 stroke with aluminum prop so that really doesn’t help me as far as where to start. Just hoping someone has a similar set up and has some ideas. I think the hull is in the 1275-1300# range but not sure. Wanting a stainless prop. Any help sure is welcome. Thanks, Jim

    I ran a 19 on a 75 and it worked really well. The 21 would not get me up to the RPM’s I needed.

    Thanks Chris. I was wondering if I could turn a 19 !!! What boat do you have it on ?

    It was a 175 Navigator. Mike W from the site owns it now. You can ask him about it. The 19 gets the higher RPM, I think close to 5900. The 21 turned about 5000. Both props pushed the boat the same speed. BRP wanted the higher RPM’s however so as not to lug the engine.

    That should be pretty close to my rig as far as weight. Do you remember what model/kind the prop is ? That might be right up my alley. Thanks
