"I have a 1987 Galaxy 2100 Sho
"I have a 1987 Galaxy 2100 Shooting Star Cuddy cabin boat, with a newer year engine/outdrive.
Mercruiser 5.0 engine, carbureated, with Alpha one outdrive. Not sure of ratio, but probably standard.
My boat at 5200RPM runs about 42MPH, swinging a 13" 3/4 prop, 21 pitch. What other props can I go to to help fuel mileage and overall handling and possibly increasing top speed?
I have been told that I can go to a larger diameter prop, but I am not sure.
Thanks for your help!"
