Re: prop help
Did you take a look in prop survey posts a few threads down?
The main thing is you do not want to lug the motor, otherwise it will die a premature death. Try to prop it to run 5300-5500RPM's WOT....

Re: Fuel consumption
Is that 5000RPM the most you can get out of it when trimmed up? If so, you are lugging the motor, (at all speeds), and shortening it's life.

Re: Hows a V20 25 miles offshore ?
25 miles?
Here that is just starting to hit deeper water of close to 60'.
15 miles out and you are only in 35' to 40'.
So yes, the V20 is a great boat to take out on regular 25-30 mile out trips....
