Hi guys!
I finally finished working on my boat, and tested it, and i'm not happy with what i got!
The engine works great, it has a lot of power, the boat jumps out of the water easy, and accelerate fast, but the top speed is very low, only 23kt. There was 2 ppl on, two big guys, but i guess it should go at least 26-27kt, even with two of us on. I guess it's the wrong prop for that boat, i think i need bigger pitch, but since the existing prop is in very bad condition, damaged by saltwater, i cant find out which propeller is that, his size, pitch etc so i can only guess. What do you guys think, for the BW sport 15, custom made console and seat, weights around 280-300kg, which prop should i use on this mercury to get the best performance?
Ty in advance, best regards from Croatia!
