Is it true if I go from an aluminum prop to a SS, I have to go down 1 pitch? and why?. Thanks, Jerry
My dealer told me once you find out what aluminum works for you and you like the performance you keep the same #'s and go to SS.
I just bought a new SS prop for my new bayliner that is exactly the same size and pitch as whats on the boat since the performance is killer.
So, from what I read here if it lowers my rpms does that mean I need a bit more open throttle to get to the same RPM but I may actually increase my top speed? Or does it mean that at the same throttle position I will keep the same RPM but increase my top speed?
I can wait to see when the prop comes next week but Id like to know your thoughts since I staied the same as my aluminum!
