Re: New Toon owner with prop ?
My stripped down 20' Bass Buggy runs 20 gps mph + or - 1 with a '86 40 hp Evinrude @ 5500 rpm 11 3/4 x 17 aluminum prop. I was told my tach may be wrong and I thought so to but now I'm back to wondering what's up? Most everyone seems to think I should be running a much lower pitch prop? My spare prop is a 12x14 SS Power Tech that I've never tried. I guess it is time to try it and see what happens.
