Thanks to all for the advise. The boat is in the shop and even though I wont be able to get it on the water for a while, I still cannot wait to get it back. Phil, I respect your recomendation highly for the Yamaha Performance Series, however after doing some online shopping that is not a cheap investment compared to an aftermarket SS prop after plunking dow 8 grand for the motor, controls, labor, guages, etc. I really dont want to be cheap, but is there any aftermarket SS prop you would feel confident recommending for my setup as the, "one" prop?
