Q:
|
A
prop larger than I can swing is indicated for my boat, engine, and
gear. Should I use as larger diameter as I can and add pitch to hold
motor rpm down?
|
|
A: |
Change the gear, increasing shaft rpm, reducing prop diameter
requirement, or, change shaft angle or prop aperture to accommodate
correct size. If impossible, use a wide 4-blade prop for diameters
18" and up. Under 18", a 3-blade, larger in diameter than
required, can be clipped to maximum usable diameter. |
