I took the family out tubing last weekend for the first time on our new to me Montauk 150. It took a long time to get up any speed and in a tight turn it would go off plane. I talked with a prop dealer and he suggested a Michigan Vortex B Series 941411 - 13-7/8" x 11"p 4 blade prop. $88 delivered. He said this would increase rpm by 400 rpm. My current prop a 13-3/8" x 14" Vengeance. At WOT I am running about 6000 rpm with about 450 pounds on board. With the family we were about 650 pounds on board. I am concerned about over revving the engine with an 11" pitch. Does it have a rpm limiter? The next step up is a 13-7/8" x 13" but the dealer said that would not give me enough pulling power. I just wanted to get a second, third.. opinion before ordering.
