I have a Honda 9.9 four stroke on a 14ft Jon. The motor is about 12 years old but new to me. I'm 280# and it gets me on plane fast and does about 18 mph wot. It runs best with the peg in the third hole from bottom. Otherwise the bow bites into the water when running at 3/4 throttle or above.
The current prop is the factory original 4 blade, 9.25 X 9. It has some dings and chips and I'd like a spare prop. Mainly for use if I further damage the current prop, but also to have something to experiment with.
I mostly run alone and put about 75# of ballast in the bow to keep it down on take off.
What effect would different pitch props have and what do you suggest?
