That's a 3 blade prop. Those numbers were all more than I expected, but again the boat was empty except for me, fuel and minimal gear. I'm sure when I put 3 more people and 500 pounds of gear it will be a little slower. Only 2 hours but very pleased so far. Here's the prop I'm using:

I would get a different prop. I see 5800 is the max reccomended WOT RPM's, but most prefer to prop them so they turn the max or a little more when loaded light. I know when loaded light, many like to prop the YAMAHA's so they bump the rev limiter. This is to help with the making oil problem that MANY experience with 4 strokes.

the guy i am getting my boat from (88 dually) has pretty much the same motor. 2014, i think, with 130 hours on it. he texted me some pics of his motor a little while ago, all screwed up. seems that mercury felt like his boat didnt need a head gasket! almost the same boat, almost the same motor and he lives in houma. lets hope that the similarities end there!

WOW, they shipped the motor without a head gasket??? I hope they have improved their quality control. Was looking at the paperwork on mine and noticed the manufacture day was April 1, 2016, sure hope I'm not the butt of a cruel April Fool's joke! Yes red snapper year round in Louisiana waters, but don't go past the line, the feds are waiting.
