Hello all, I just got through the break in with my new Suzuki on my 16' 72" beam semi-v hull alumacraft.
Here are my performance #s 20mph 5400 rpm 11"pitch 3 blade aluminum prop 2.08 gear ratio 26% slip if my calculations are correct.
Motor is mounted on a Vance mfg breakaway plate 3" rise 6" setback.
What can I do for better performance? Less 9 or 10 pitch 4 blade or 10" pitch 3 blade?
26% slip is a lot of slip correct?
