I have a 1997 18' Kenner with a 1996 115hp Johnson with a 13 7/8" diameter 17 pitch aluminum propeller. With a full tank of gas (30 gals) 2 average size people and fishing gear it cruises at 30mph and 4800rpm. If I were to install a 19 pitch stainless steel prop, what kind of mph increase should I expect? I do notice that if I throttle too quickly from a dead stop the engine revs high as if it were cavitating also does it when I am cruising and make a turn semi sharply.
