1st question - propeller<br /><br />First time out with my "new" 81 50 hp merc. Whoo Hoo I never ran anything larger than a 9.9. Am I under propped? Full Throttle 6,300 RPM - Don't worry, I did not run it there. 5500 rmp = 28mph (gps) Prop that came on the motor is a 48-73140-15. What do those numbers tell me about the prop and what size prop should I run. How fast should I be able to go in a 16' Sea Nymph Fishing Machine rated for a 60HP?<br /><br />2nd Question - Where can I get a steering linkage to hook up to this motor? I had to make(rig) one up. The one fron the 9.9 did not fit?<br /><br />3rd question - Can I get a tiller kit to change my 9.9 to a tiller. The number is OB336659. Where to buy and about how much?<br /><br />Thanks,<br /><br />Rick

Re: 3 Questions

Please do not post the same question in more than one place, Rick.<br /><br />It causes confusion and frustration for the people who are here to help.

Sorry,<br /><br />I was not sure if the prop question should actually be here or elsewhere. It will not happen again.<br /><br />Rick
