We're just finishing up our first season with a 1982 17' Montauk, which came with a Yamaha F70 mounted one-hole-up and a (presumably Yamaha Performance) aluminum prop, 13 1/4 x 17-K. Not surprisingly, RPMs top out around 4500 at WOT. I'm having the engine remounted three-holes-up in the off season, and would like to get a recommendation on a stainless-steel prop currently available that will get the F70 to over 6000 RPM with this configuration.
