I will provide as much detail as I can. mostly I am worried about the original prop for this motor as a starting point, if someone has a suggestion feel free to give it. the prop thats on it has no markings left and is chewed up pretty good. I want to spend the money on a SS prop but don't know what size or pitch. in the water at WOT it seems to rev a little high but I haven't been able to get the tach to work. it cavitates occasionally on turns but I think that's fairly normal? this is my first boat so forgive my ignorance.
the boat is a 16 ft fisher circa 83 it's a fairly heavy semi v the cavitation plate is just below the transom. I'm not worried a whole lot about max speed I just don't want to tear up the motor as after much cash and work it has been running really well.
I am working on getting a diff. tach but I fear basing anything off of the chewed up prop. and I also don't know it's size or pitch. the largest ss prop I have found for my motor is a 11" 15 pitch.
