If you want some nav for my favorite boat camping spots in the San
Juans, let me know.

Normaly I run a 19x14.5 prop (350 ci carb engine -- 22' cuddy) with no cargo &

with 4 people; I can't quite make WOT RPM
This weekend we're taking a trip to the San Juan Islands with 2 other people (4
total) and kris & I are camping on the boat (lots of cargo)
I have an 18x15 on it now and it did OK with 4 people this past weekend for
"Tall Ships Tacoma".
Before we take off -- I plan on swapping out the prop before the trip but want
to avoid a mid-trip swap if I choose poorly....
I have the following props to choose from:
19x14.5 3 blade (I know this will not be good)
18x15 3 blade (Good with 4 people, but unknown about lots of cargo)
18x14.5 4 blade
17x15.5 3 blade
I'm tempted to do the 4 blade and hope -- but I'm thinking with the added load
of lots of gear -- the 17 might be the best choice.
Any thoughts?
