Default Question about trim tabs

You might be able to go down one size in either pitch or diameter. you

yes, I will do some experimenting with the prop. I ahve 4 other props
from various other mrcruisers of different pitches and diameters, and
I'm really not sure that what I have on the boat presently is the
right prop anyhow. seeing I bought it used. But I do have a prop that
came off a 20 ft trihull with the same alfa drive and engine. So I'll
probably need to do some experimenting to see what will work best. And
what seems to be best stays, but I'll be taking a couple props with
me anyhow. If need be, something's better than nothing in this case,
even if it's wrong.
