I would like to provide all of the information that I can but I DO NOT, have a propeller on it now to use as a comparison. I just purchased the boat without a prop. The engine is a 1989 45hp Evinrude commercial model with electric start. The boat is a 1988 Lund Rebel Mr. Pike 16' deep v with 20 inch transom and single console steering. The boat unloaded is approximately 650lbs with engine. I will put another 700lbs in it on average. My goals are to be able to cruise, fish, and tube. I realize that no prop will do all equally well. If I am able to cruise at 20-22 after cutting throttle back and tow a 120lb child on the tube with 600lbs in the boat I would be happy. Anyone have any ideas?
