[QUOTE="Toolbagtyler, post: 477616, member: 26358"] So did some testing this weekend... with just me the 9 pitch was pretty much perfect. Got on plane and topped out at 20.2 mph at 6090 rpm. However with my girlfriend and I I could barely break plane and would stick around 5280 rpm and 15.5 mph. When I occasionally did get on plane after cruising a long time straight I'd get up to 17.5 at 5700 rpm. Being that i wil go with two people most times with more gear and a heavier passenger then my girlfriend should I try an 8 pitch to get on plane quicker? Or maybe a 4 blade? Do you think it will make a difference? [/QUOTE]
