I completely agree with the rest of the comments here. You have a great motor that's factory matched (HP wise) to your boat. Don't fix what ain't broken.. use the money for beer and wild wimmin'

Well, I guess that settles that. As much as I appreciate all the advice, this post by far is my favorite and really sealed the deal for me. Thanks all. Also, I was going to go with a new prop. Probably stainless steel. Does anyone have a recommendation?
