Sign me up for first of the year. I believe you have to put a grand or two into every year on every boat you own, just to get the full experience.
My Christmas present. I don't believe the prop will get much better. These surface drives follow a different set of rules.

How did the 1.5:1 perform on the same boat?

 Re: 2015 37EFI Prodrive Gen4 on 19x46 Aucion skiff
I drove this rig this past weekend and I must say the EFI engine is impressive. It will step a 4 man hunting load with ease and run quite well. The only time this engine bogged was when Trimmed down in thick mud packed with lilies. Other than that work the trim to get the prop to bite and she was back going strong and on the rev limiter again. Again Impressive engine.

 Re: 2015 37EFI Prodrive Gen4 on 19x46 Aucion skiff
After dealing with some vibration issues we found it to be the prop. Brian at PD worked my prop by hand and this is by far the smoothest prodrive I've ever ran.
I didn't check the speed by myself but after he worked the prop I got a steady 28mph with me and my cousin and my 20qt yeti with 12 gallons of gas.
I got 25mph with a camp load. 18gal of gas 65qt yeti with 60lbs of ice in it 50qt yeti 40lbs of ice 20qt yeti full of water and beer Propane stove and propane bottle Groceries and clothes 2 cases of beer
