Re: 16 hp prop on light rig I've run everything from 8x5 to 9x6 and I find that my 16 runs best on average with a 9x4. 19 mph with me and the dog, 16 with me, the dog and another person, and 13-14 with that same load plus hunting gear. My boat is really light though.

Re: 16 hp prop on light rig I guess I should add that I had a baffle break loose a while back so I gutted that stock exhaust and that's what I run. Honestly I don't think it makes hardly any difference as far as performance is concerned. But it's worth mentioning.

Re: 16 hp prop on light rig Preciate it guys. I gutted the main baffle out of my stock exhaust and gained 100-150 rpms
