Hello everyone, I have never really paid any attention to prop on my pontoon but after reading some posts I think I should start thinking about replacement. Mine has a few nicks in it and from what I read it could cause some internal damage. I have a 24ft pontoon and its obviously under powered but I want to ensure I am getting the most of out it and that it is running like it should. I am not worried about speed as most of the cursing is in a no wake river, but I do open it up here and there. Is there a certain pitch that I am looking for? I read a post that someone was putting a 17-19p on this engine and I thought that was too much. I'm thinking more of 15p? I don't have a manual and I am not sure if it would tell me in there or not. Anyone know of the recommended or is this something I have to check at WOT?
