Re: johnson 88spl vs. evinrude vro
Please post an update as to what prop you bought and the improvement. I have same engine on similar boat. Would like to know if possible how much speed and rpm is affected while going from light load to heavy load.
Just swapped engines to the 88SPL and with current prop (checking tonight to see what I have I WOT was at 4200 RPM. I need to check my linkage to make sure I am getting full throttle as this was first trip out on test run with 1000 lbs of body weight. Typical load is double that. My friends tend to eat real good. LOL.
BTW, top speed was 22.8 mph.
