The boat tops out at about 3800-4000 rpm, and when I have the boat out of the water next year, I might get the prop shop to take an inch or two off the diameter, or two or three inches of pitch taken out. I like my engines to hit 4200-4400 rpm with full water and fuel tanks.
Btw, I don’t know if these are the factory props or not.
What does your prop guy say about this idea, the best way to proceed ?
