Just bought a (brand new leftover) boat with a Nissan 30 4strk, long shaft. Dealer did a test run yesterday and it's getting 30mph @ 6020rpm on a 10 pitch prop. The leg/cav plate seems to be low so I'm gueesing that raising it a notch will even improve that. ( and I will.) Anyway, I think I'll be pretty happy with that but since I want to buy a spare prop anyway.....
Wondering if I should spend some $ and splurge on a namebrand performance and/or stainless prop . Not sure how much performance ( or efficiency) I'd be buying when I'm dealing with so little hP. Wonderign if I should just hunt up any 9.9x10 or 11 (10 spline) prop and be content.
Feel free to recomend specific brands/models.
Thanks
