"hi all I just put together a project to say the least. I have a 1979 skeeter dual console 16ft. bass boat. the only prop i have is a stainless steel 13 1/8 x 16 prop the boat ran well extreemly fast jumped right up on plane sounded great but my new faria tach was peged over 6000 Good thing the engine didnt come apart on me. I am a marine tech by trade and i know the only good way to determine the correct prop is trial and trial untill optimum rpm range is achieved but I dont have all that money to keep on trying new props. Im only in the field two years and some tips from an experienced tech would save me alot of trouble money and time. Or any links worth while would help also im in florida and i dont know the sea level or the weight of the boat or model so mercury prop wizzard wont help me maby you can, thanks in advance."
