Hello Fellows,
I am really confused on how to select the right prop for my boat. I currently have a Volva Penta 5.0GL Stern Drive 220hp V-8 305 c.i.d. I have a 20ft.Larson Senza 206 bowrider with a 14.5 X 19 aluminuim 3 blade prop that got bent up last summer. I want to upgrade to a SS 3 blade but not loose anything but would'nt mind gaining better whole shot and more mph. WOT for my boat in rated at 4400 to 4800 max rpm. Could someone here please help me out in finding the best SS prop? My family and I are tubing and skiing and usually around 7 of us on board. I did'nt want to switch over to a four blade beacause I was told that I would loose mph but gain better out of the whole. What do you guys think?? I would really appreciate any help you guys can offer.
Thanks,
Angel
