What vp prop for 23 Hourston

[trendsetter]

Would a 15x17 be the next to try??... and oh I have props for trade lol

You want to reduce the prop pitch not increase it. So you would be looking for a 13p or 14p prop not a 17p.

When you reduce the pitch of a prop it has the same effect as shifting to a lower gear in your truck.

A 4 blade prop will help give you a better hole shot and cruise speed. If you only reach 3900RPM with a 15p then I would try a 13p 4 blade aluminum prop.

Don't worry about the diameter of the prop (the first number in the 15x15 size). Look for a 4-blade, high-rake, stern lifting prop like the solas amita. They're inexpensive and perform very well.

Oh ok anyone got a 15x13 volvo penta short hub prop. As a note I have talked to some other guys with the 23 hourstons seems they are using a 15x 16 and 15x 17.
I wonder if I got some other problems going on

Alot depends on the gearing f the leg as well you wont know till its apart and count the gears etc... you never kknow what some people will throw together ttry that prop and see where that goes same with the other one you want to record EVERYTHING speed,RPM ay WOT and any notes you notice and then look back at whats going on
