    Prop slip factors

    OK, I'm running a '96 Evinrude 130 on a Stratos 217F w/ an OMC SST 21p and getting only 43(gps)mph. Using Ken Cook's prop slip calculator, that's like 31% slip. Is this normal for this prop OR are there other factors that I can consider, like engine mounting height? Also, I can't open the...

    Break in advice on re-hubbed prop

    First a little background. I have a "new to me" 1994 120hp Johnson with a 13 1/2x22 SS Raker prop. Liked it alot, but spun the hub out within 3 months my ownership. Just figured it was old, as it spent more time out of the water than in it. Took it to a local prop guy and had it rehubbed. The...

    I own 1994 Stratos 217F that is in need of an electronics upgrade. The new unit, a Lowrance x-125, is not compatable with the older Lowrance transducers that were factory installed. Can I trust that the positions of the original transducers were optimal and that, since they were epoxied on the...
