Prop size
I have a 1994 Tracker Pro-V 17 that I repowered to a 2017 60 hp 4 stroke a few years ago.
It came with a Black Max 10.5 x 13 aluminum prop. The boat gets up on plane, runs about 32 mph and handles fine but will max out at about 6200 RPM.
Since I like the way it handles I've been leery to change anything and I just keep the throttle backed off a little to keep the rpm's under the 6000 recommended max if I do open it up. Most days I just run a 5000 rpm so it's not an issue.
I'm really not knowledgeable about props so what would I want to do in order to slow my max rpm down to lets say 5800 and what effect would it have on my performance. more/less top end? more/less hole shot?
Thanks in advance.
