If I would post a picture of my boat and motor
sitting on the trailer, would this help
determine what size prop would work best?
I have a 1969 40HP Big Twin Evinrude
on a 1972, 15' Glassmaster, runabout,
1250 pound capacity.
I've never had this boat in the water,
and it came without a prop mounted.
I have the standard prop dimensions
provided from steelspike. However,
the previous owner (of above,) mentioned
the boat had trouble planing out
and that he could never see over
the front end at moderate speeds.
Hence, I thought a picture may help
in hopes of a better determination of what
prop would take care of that type issue.
Per steelspike: In 69 the standard prop was 101/2 X 12.
Optional was 103/8 X 11 1/2.
10 3/8 X 13 1/4.
and I believe 10 3/8 X 14.
