Hi
I have a 1982 whaler 13' and a 1982 35hp evinrude.

I live at 9000' and go boating at 7500'-9000'. Any ideas on what the correct size prop is??

Also any help on the carb set up for this elevation would be great.

Thanks

Re: Which size prop (high elevation)

Carb needs jets changed if motor came from much lower elevation (5000' mSL or <). Your engine is about 25HP at your current elevation. Prop is determined empirically. A nearby dealer can give you good advise, but it will be a pretty low pitch prop.
