I have a 19' aluminum hull crestliner phantom sst that was originally powered by a 115 evinrude and ran great with a 13 1/4 prop @ 17 pitch. I am upgrading to a new 150 etec (hrr hrr hrr as tim the toolman tailor would growl) and am looking for suggestions to help me narrow down the field to an ideal prop. Evinrude sent me a 17 pitch viper ss prop with this motor but I cant imagine that will be right (thinking I will need to increase pitch with increased hp?). I usually run aluminum props as I go where the fish go...."rockfish" that is. The boat is used for a combination of fishing and pleasure boating with limited water sports. I am looking for a good all-around prop but would lean towards fuel efficiency over 1 mph increase in top end speed or acceleration.
Ayuh.....I need some help Thanks in advanceView attachment 185911
