I have a 15 hp Mercury on a 14 ft. jon boat. The prop is a B9 X9P. I have no idea what the letters mean. Normally this pushes the boat like a bat with just me, the dog and fishing gear. However, I am about to take it on a trip where there will be 3 men and all our camping gear in the boat loaded right to the max or maybe a bit over. I need the motor to really push with that much weight. Should I just go with a 9 x 8 or should I bite the bullet and go to a 9 x 7 to be sure. Would you recommend putting a tachometer on the boat so I don't over rev the engine by bringing down the pitch.
