20' center console wooden/glas skiff.<br /><br />Operating range is 5150-5850. With a 13.75x15 Michigan vortex, I get near 5800 alone or with one passenger, but down near 5200 with a couple people and some gear. I can't get above 5000 with 4 oeipole and all their gear, but that only happens twice per year for about 20 ,minutes at a time getting to and from camp. <br /><br />Rule of thumb I've read is add 200 rpms per inch of pitch you deduct, but iI have my eye on a 13.75x14 stainless prop. Going from aluminum to stainless, would I still gain another 200 rpm per inch of pitch?<br /><br />Thanks
