Per recommendation, I replaced my prop with a 8.25x5p 3 blade prop.
Solved the low RPM issue and more than doubled boat speed.

PROBLEM: Only prop I could find was Lexan. Worked great but I ran into a rock pile and it blew apart. Only got 2 hours use out of it.

Anyone know of another prop 8-8.5 x 5 available? Maybe Aluminum? I can't find any references.

Well I found and purchased the last (2) 8.25x5p Lexan props in existence. Hopefully they will last a while.

Still can't find anything in an aluminum with low pitch.
