[QUOTE="k13west, post: 473829, member: 25362"] Isn't your problem a poor hole shot/slow to plane? If so then go to a lower pitch prop. You'll lose a bit of top end speed, but the boat will pop up on plane and your motor won't need to work so hard. I tried all the online pitch calculators I could find but I load my boat heavy and no calculator gave me a suggestion lower than 10" pitch. I went to a 9" anyway and it was perfect. I know it's not cheap to test buy different props but I'm very glad I did. Sent from my moto g(7) power using Tapatalk [/QUOTE]
