    115 Pro XS Command Thrust on a pontoon - prop?

    ok....got out on the river today. It was windy and a little rough. But I saw 27 mph and 6000 rpm. with the black max, 3 blade, 16x13...I think I'm where I want to be. I did not have the full bimini up..so there's that....I don't think the spitfire, 4 blade, 14x12 would be better......

    115 Pro XS Command Thrust on a pontoon - prop?

    yep...a14x13, 4blade, 4.75 hub would be the ticket,...figures there isn't one..... the 14x12 would take me over max rpm when it's just me...but loaded down might be ok, use the tach......if this 16x13 doesn't work...I'll just get that... I'm just glad I now know about gearcase size....the...

    115 Pro XS Command Thrust on a pontoon - prop?

    I had the exact experience with the same 13.8x13 prop!....couldn't figure it out...until these posts.....learned something new.. Went to the merc dealer...so...fyi...There is a spitfire, 4 blade, 14x12, 4.75 hub.....If this 16x13, 3blade black max doesn't work.....I'll just get that.... Yep...

    115 Pro XS Command Thrust on a pontoon - prop?

    it appears that im going to need a black max, 3 blade, 16x13.. with the 4.75 hub...to get the rpm's I want...maybe the route we have to go....3 blades, not 4....to get that 4.75 hub match... it now seems these smaller CT motors...with big pontoon boats can be difficult to prop...of course....

    115 Pro XS Command Thrust on a pontoon - prop?

    well...I have a merc 2021, 115hp, CT. just the regular 115. So whatever gear case comes with that motor is what i have. It had the merc spitfire,4 blade, 14x14. The Turning Point "Hustler" 4 blade, 14x13 actually fit right on the spitfire's hub, and matches the diameter of my gearcase. So, I'm...
