After I got my boat home yesterday, started snooping around after reading
iboats for the last month. I have a 20' 1997 Starcraft Starfish pontoon with 23" pontoons. The boat is rated at 75 hp., I have a 90 hp. Merc. with a 20" shaft, 14"x16p. 3 bladed prop. I realize its a motor question, but I wanted a pontoon perspective. From what I read that is too short of a shaft, wrong pitch prop & too big of a motor. I should of done more research. Back to the dealer?
