Re: thoughts on new prop

you need a prop that keeps your WOT (wide open throttle) in the recomened rpm range for your motor<br /><br />then it really depends on how you want to use the boat if sking was you main thing you would use a different prop then if top speed was all that you wanted.<br /><br /> http://www.mercurymarine.com/everything_you_need_to_know_about_propellers5 <br /><br /><br />this will keep you busy<br /><br />tommays
