I have an older Grumman 17' Pontoon (state says its 16') with a 2003 Yamaha 70hp 2 stroke the previous owner put on it. It has what I believe to be the original prop that has the numbers TA2032 13 (which I assume is a 13 pitch prop). When out on the water with just me the motor will get to about 5000 rpm on the tach, but with 2 adults and 2 kids, it maxes out at about 4800 RPM. I have not had a GPS out with me to get an accurate measure of speed, but it seems to move well enough for a pontoon.
Does this sound like the right size prop for this boat, or should I consider something else when funds allow?
Thanks,
Bob
