Quick question about getting a new prop


Esteban

Recommended Posts

I've got a 2015 Redfisher and late last year I put a new Yamaha 115 SHO on the back.  I'm currently running a Yamaha Talon 13.125 x 18 prop and am generally happy with it except for the fact that I am experiencing a relatively poor holeshot either with or without tabs.  And it's worse on the rare occasion I have more than 2 people in the boat, lots of bow rise and 8-10 seconds to get on plane.  I know these are heavy boats for their size and I can't expect a quick holeshot like a lot of flats boats, but I'm thinking of going to a Mercury SpitFire X7 13 x 17 4 blade, figure I'll do better with that.  I found a prop online but also need a hub kit, and the one listed for this prop is a Mercury/Quicksilver Flo Touq II #835271Q2.  Thing is, the description says that kit is for YAMAHA (150-300 HP HPDI 2-STROKE).  Seeing as this kit is listed for a 150-300 hp motor and mine is a 115, my question is whether this is the proper hub kit.  I assume that it is but just want confirmation from someone much more knowledgeable than me.  Thanks.
