Prop recommendations?
I have been reading many threads about choosing the right prop. So much to consider!
Before I begin my assessment of different prop pitches and diameters, I am looking for some recommendations to use as starting points. Ultimately, I will test different props -- measure RPMs at WOT.
Boat Info:
1988 20' Four Winns Horizon
5.0L V8 I/O Stern drive
200HP at crank case (175HP at prop shaft???)
Boat weight with engine, full fuel, 3 passengers and accessories - 3,320lbs
Max WOT, per boats specs - 4,200 - 4,600
Limited to max of 14.5" diameter due to clearance from bottom of lower unit
