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.

Re: 89 DUALLY PICS
While proppin' mine last year, I tried a Merc Mirage 15 1/2 x 17...GREAT performance, but caused a little ''rattle'' in my lower unit (it will NOT rattle in yours as it was designed FOR a Merc motor...)if you get an opportunity to try one of those, I think it'll work for you...my dealer here may still have that prop...will check if you want me to... ;)...

Re: 89 DUALLY PICS
It depends what you want out of the boat?? *I ran a 17 and was not happy with the over all performance.
I carry alot of weight, fish, clams ect ect.. Any any give time I may have 200 to 800 pounds of fish or clams. So I need the pushing power. I Cruz at about 28 to 30 mph and top out about 38 MPH with a light load. Yes he is the first DC, BS, I even started a new Dual console gallery in his Honor!!
