Assuming you can get one to try, you might want to try a four blade
14"x17p SS prop - that will get you out of the hole guick and give you
some real bite while cruising.

I switched from a 14.5x19 three blade to a 14.5'x19 four blade and the
difference was startling - in fact, it turned the Ranger CC into a
whole different boat. Plenty of bite out of the hole, terrific
efficiency and it gave me something I've never had on that boat, lots
of bow lift.


Interesting, I had always believed a 4 blade is less effecient fuel wise as it
has more drag. and the less blades is hte most effecient. If balance could be
worked out a 1 blade is "ideal" . I can't recall where I read that; but it was
from multiple sources....

I'll check out a 4 blade, worth a try anyway.

Thanks
