Lockeman's raised the motor one hole to see if there was any improvement in RPMs. He also gave us a new aluminum prop to try if this did not work.

Looks good at 75% trim and with great water conditions. Keep us informed of any new information you get.
Make me want one even worse now.

Sweet vid. What prop you swinging. I'm sure your happy with it just the way it is, but you might get just a touch more out of her with a stainless prop with more bite...let you get a bit more trim out of her.
Lookin great

The prop we started with is a 14.8 X 17 aluminum. the new one is a 15 X 15 aluminum and we also got a stainless 14.8 X 17 to try. That will happen next weekend but I'll be on vacation the following week so it will be a while before I post any new results. Sunday was great it was like an August day little or no wind. Fishing was good took eight eyes. 42 - 43 is nice but we like it around 28 to 30 mph at about 3500 - 3800 Rs. Billy Mac ;D
