Just reporting back on the new Quicksilver Nemesis 13 X 17 prop on my 1987 Whaler with a 1987 70 hp Mercury 2 stroke. I love this propeller and it suits my needs for a prop that can get the boat up on plane at low speeds since I do most of my boating in areas with a slight chop and I like to be able to get up on plane at lower speeds. We were able to get my Montauk up up on plane with a person load of 600 pounds and 15 gallons of fuel at only 10 mph. Top speed at WOT (5100 rpm) was 31 mph in a slight chop. Thanks for the suggestion I can't ask for a better prop for the money.
