I tried a new prop today. 4 blade 15 pitch. Top speed 40knots at 5500rpm. Cruising at 30knots I was burning 8 gpr. With the 4 blade the boat seems to ride smoother and dryer.

I don't understand why other members are hitting 50 mph with their etec 150's. The boat actually burned less fuel and was faster when it was over propped.
