I have a comparable boat, slightly heavier, that runs
a 3 bladed 15 x 17.

Don't know if its optimal but it seems about right.


Out of curiosity, have you tried any other prop?


I had a spare for awhile that was something like 14 1/2 x 17. It
didn't seem to make much difference.

Default Prop Suggestions -- general ball park....

MerCruiser has a prop selector at
http://appcenter.mercurymarine.com/p... Gr5XDqQLvpAe_
that might be of interest.

call your local prop shop mine here in Iowa has domo and loaners to try
for
free if returned with no damage.


I'll check them out -- good idea.
Tacoma Prop here has (previously) taken back (exchange) props.

I live on an island tho, so "testing" tends to be a pain -- wanted a
general
ball park idea to start with & then be able to adjust....

Cheers

I saw that -- doesn't go back to 92; and picking 2000 & going thru it; it tells
me:

Errors
Application outside of current selector limits. Please see your local Mercury
dealer or visit the Ask Mercury section of our website.

Thanks
