Default 14.78 x 16P Enertia Propeller

Specifics


This propeller turned out to be a bit too much for my F150 Yamaha Outboard at Montana altitudes. It has been used for two seasons, but is in excellent (like new) shape with no nicks, dings or dents. I'll include the Flo-Torq IV hub kit that I used with this prop as I've gone to a Yamaha Reliance series and no longer use the Flo-Torq system. That's an $80 value included for free. This is the final listing on eBay before Spring 2010

Is this prop right for you? My boat is a 20ft Crestliner. Fully equipped, a full tank of fuel (54gal) and two people, it weighs close to 3500lb. At 3000 feet above sea level, I lose about 13 hp. In the conditions just stated, the F150 Yamaha will top out at 38mph @ 5400rpm. However, if I remove the trolling motor from the bow and the two group27 trolling batteries from their mid-ship locker, the boat will then top out at 43mph and 6000rpm with just me aboard and a half tank of gas.

Figure about 3200lb and operation at sea level (or close to it) and you should be fine.
