Counter rotation vs normal rotation
 
I have a 2600 Coastal walk around with Yamaha 200s counter rotating.
I have an opportuniy to purchase new in the crate 200s both normal
rotation. Does anyone know what effect that will have on the boat?

Assuming you have power steering so you won't feel the torque in the
steering wheel, probably no difference. If you have manual steering, you
may not be able to hold the steering wheel.

You'll never see the difference... and you'll never have to buy two
different props.


It'll feel a little different at first backing up slowly since the prop
walk won't counteract eachother. But with outboards, it's easy to
compensate for it and you'll get used to it quickly.

Backing to Starboard will not be as easy.
