Depending on your engines gear ratio, which is? It may, as mentioned be a Dog, or be OK. BTW, what is the current prop on the boat?
From what I can see by way of Mercruiser reference charts the ratio is 1.81.
Anyways the prop is on and we went for a burn last night. I'm very new to boat ownership and have little context to compare to, but it all felt fine. Will see how a couple more outings go and report back. Thanks.
