So I hit a rock and replaced my prop. I wanted a spare so I contacted Waterline Boats and Scott Helker told me that they had settled on 24X19 for the latest builds. Took the old prop off and it was stamped 24X18 but also had XXed out 16 and 17. Cupping was also XXed out. Looks like it was rebuilt/repitched a couple of times.
Previously I was calculating about 6.5knts at 1490 with 2.5 g/hr. Now I'm getting 6.5/1350/2.5 and 7.0/1470/2.5!!!
Can this increase in performance and efficiency be due to an inch of prop pitch?? Or was the old prop a total Frankenstien??
