Re: modifying pitch on S/S prop
Specs from SeaRay site, looking at the site I think these specs are with the 496 mag B III 375hp engine, (standard power) you have T-220hp 4.3L B III. You should be able to take this info along with the fuel, water, holding tank and other stuff on the boat and get close to actual weight. Then, if you have a trailer, go get it weighed and see how close you are.
