[QUOTE="russ010, post: 153546, member: 677"] I don't know what they consider light load... but I know they told me I needed a heavy load (9 x 9) for my boat. I've got 3 batteries, about 100lbs of wood/accessories, 50lb trolling motor, me (185lbs), gas (40-50lbs), and the boat itself (320-350lbs) - this equals about 930-950lbs, and that 9x10 prop pushes me at a top speed of 18-19mph according to my fish finder GPS. When I get another person in the boat, the weight goes up another 200-250lbs - I guess that is what they consider a heavy load. I'm going to get the prop put on tomorrow (I'm taking the boat to South Carolina with me), so I'll hopefully try it out tomorrow afternoon with another person in there with me to see how it does [/QUOTE]
