Porpoising and corner blowout

Recommended Posts

PC,

  I haven’t pulled the trigger on the prop yet as when I was talking to Marcus he said that they offer a 30 replacement warrantee for change of prop in case there are issues w pitch etc.  He recommended whating until I was going to be using the boat regularly to get the new prop.  Sounded like good advice to me. ;)

  Will let you know when I do tho...

                      Best,

The weather is warming, so I took the plunge yesterday and slapped an OFX4 17 on the 22.  Schweet!  It corrected all of the issues I was having with porpoising and corner blow out!  Plus the boat is quicker to plane and stays on plane a lot better now.  I was able to get it to ~5700rpm and 43 mph.  That is about 1 mph slower than the old prop, but the rpm range is much better.  I can now make full use of the engine trim and the trim tabs. 

 Thanks all for the feedback!
