Post How much vibration y'all getting GTR
I just ran a Gtr with a fresh big blade. Dam good running Boat but has a lot of vibration. I checked balance of prop weight and pitch and it's dead on. Shaft is running true. any of y'all getting the same?

It depends on speed, trim, and load. I adjust to minimum vibration, unless some PD thinks he can pass me! :lol:

My experiences the 2 blade will have more vibrations. The older frames felt it mores with the solid mounted tiller. The newer frames fell it less with the dampened tiller handle assembly. Also you'd be surprised at how much an unbalanced engine can put into a frame aswell.

Mine ain't bad, but I'm from up north so I'm probably a fair bit tougher than you all.

I also drive with my mittens on most of the time.

Dude, even Paul Bunyan wore mittens.

Why you think they call em "a pair a choppers?"
