"Hello. I am running a dive charter boat, 26ft John Allmand (1981) with TAMD40A.
Rated HP is 145. Target RPM is 3600.
Playing with the props, trying to find the correct setup.
First tried Michigan left rotation 082021 15x19
- Alone on the boat, full 70gal fuel
3750rpm / 25mph
- 4 passengers, 4 tanks, weights/gear/ice/water, full 70gal fuel (all this is 2/3 of full boat load)
3000rpm / 14mph
Have spare "elephant ear" Michigan 082073 to try, not sure of the pitch on it, 16" diameter....anyone heard of this prop?
Going to try to find 15x17 prop....any other suggestions? Thanks in advance
PS I also have Bennett trim tabs"
