I have a 24 longtail on a 17 X 40 skiff any of you guys know how to tell the pitch on the prop? I can only turn up 3450 on the tiny tach. Would one size down be able to turn up to 3600? thanks for any help. |

What kinda load are you pushing at those RPM's? Is it the prop that it came with? What speeds are you getting? |

The boat is all 1/8 with a 15 (est) gallon tank in the bow. With me and ice chest 17 mph. Loaded down for weekend About 13 mph. Bought motor used with 50 hrs. So I guess It's original. Was told its a bevertail but it dosent look like one other than the bearing set-up on the shaft. |

Put some pictures of this rig up, you probably won't me able to squeeze 2-3 more mph out of it regardless of what you do. |
