"ok...need some help.
recently i bought a patio boat, a 16ft crestliner with a honda BF30A 4 stroke
the guy who bought it originally had some downriggers on it, so im assuming that he down propped the boat as it has a top speed at WOT of only 7 mph, and a top RPM of only 3000 ( if the tach is reading correctly)
even if the tach isnt correct though, im sure it should go faster than 7 MPH......my last patio/pontoon boat was a 20ft that was much heavier, it had a 25hp mariner (yamaha) on it, and it topped at around 15 i think, and it WAS propped for trolling.
does anyone happen to know what the "stock prop" pitch was?
id like to get myself another prop that will bring the engine RPM back up to specs and give the boat more speed.....any help would be appreciated"
