I have a 20 ft open bow sunbird 1984 with a 5.7 260 hp alpha 1 outdrive, There is a 21 pitch 14.75 alum 3 blade prop on it, Ittops out at 5500 rpm at 45 mph,using a GPS I dont want the engine to rev that high and that's the lowest rpm I can run to get 45 mph.I feel it should get more mph, That is just with me in it. I tried a 19 pitch 14.5 alum 3 blade prop, Then it revs way to fast and only 35 mph. What do you guys recommend.I still want decent low end to pull a skier.
