Default Re: 89 DUALLY PICS

SoCo - Welcome!! Nice rig. I think you're one of the first Dual Console v20's on the board. Reel gave you some good advice with the power tech Props.

It's a bit of voodoo finding the right prop for your rig. That motor you have needs to be propped b/w 5500 - 5800. I think a 17 pitch prop would be about right for that boat/motor. When you get your boat on the water . . . . let us know what you get for MAX rpm with your current prop.

Props with higher rake like the Laser 2, rapture, stiletto will give you more bow lift.

Props like Merc Mirage will give you more stern lift (no bow lift bow ride down).

The 17 mirage or 17 revolution 4 is probably a good pick for your setup. Check ebay or other online forums for deals.

Personally I'm a big fan of the highfive props.
