Finally got my Wellcraft put back together 21' 305 ci OMC Cobra ratio 1.59:1 Michigan wheel recommended a 14.5 x 21 prop. Here's the problem, terrible out of the hole, tach only shows 2100 rpm @32.9 mph by my calculations even figuring 15% slip I'd have to be turning 3100 to get to 32.9. wot only 2500 on the tach 40.1 mph.
I know my motor is way off and I need to work on that ( 15 years in storage didn't do it any favors) but the numbers I'm getting from my gps and tack don't make sense and the motor doesn't sound like it's twisting hard at all. Question is, Is my prop that far off or is my tach that far off?
