I have a Bentley 200 Cruise pontoon boat with a 2005 Mercury 2 stroke on it. The prop is a 12x8 Black Max and the WOT RPM is very close to being right. My question is if I were to go to a Turning Point Hustler about what size would I need? I went to the Turning Point homepage and used their prop selector guide and it recommended a 10 3/4 x 12. This totally threw me off. Can anyone offer any advice?
Thanks.

Re: Prop Change From Black Max To TP Hustler

Don't be afraid to give us the details.We can't make a reccomendation without your present max rpm , speed and the hp and details on the merc.In my opinion the best move on a pontoon is to a 4 blade.Like the Solas amita.
The Hustler has been unpredictable;so much so as to make one wonder if they are miss marked.When they do well the do really well.I don't think the hustler is the one for a pontoon.
Prop calculators are sometimes confused by a pontoon.
