Well here's another prop question.
Godfrey emailed me that they put a 11-5/8 x 11 prop on all their Sweetwater 2186 pontoons (21 ft )
with the Yamaha 60-4 stroke.
I finally got out today and mine has a 14 x 11 alum. prop. the boat is a 2006 and it only had a few hours on it when we bought it last month.
I run at 5600 WOT at 21 mph on my GPS.
I feel that the prop is original but I don't know for sure and i'm trying to decide if the Godfrey size should be on there and what advantage, if any, that I can expect.

Re: prop info

Stay with what you have, it is working fine, the other prop will theoretically turn too many RPM and does not have enough blade surface area unless it is a 4 blade. And other than that I cannot say.
