82 bay liner Capri qa125a w/Volvo penta 270
14 x 19 prop wot 4500. Approx 35 mph.
Now gonna get an extra prop. And switch this one out.
With info provided what did this boat come with?
Should I try a 14 x 17?
Would switching to a 4 blade help or hurt.
Thanks guys.

Re: Prop size help

Please read the stickys at the top of the prop forum and get as much info as possible to us.
Unfortunately I don't have access to any reliable Volvo specs.
Had an address but lost it.
From my limited info I think your number is AQ125 As I understand it the AQ125 is not necessarily 125 hp.
We need your gear ratio May be on the outdrive
We need the size of your Capri.There are many models from 14' on up.

Sorry yes AQ 125 A, 19 foot.
As far as gear ratio, is it stamped somewhere accessible
