I have a 150hp Mercury EFI that is running a 3 blade tempest prop on a Stratus 486SF. It seems that the prop is right for the boat, but it does not have the hole shot needed to pull skiers good. The boat seems to be a little sluggish when trying to pull a skier and someone mentioned to me that if I change the plugs out in the prop, it would make the hole shot better.
Looking at the prop, I found 3 black plugs (with holes in the middle) and I believe this is what he was talking about.
I have a couple of questions.
1. Would this really help the hole shot on the boat ??
2. How hard are they to switch out.
Thanks for your help.
