Not to sound too harsh but why did you accept the boat with the engine rigging not as you specified?

The prop recommendations I listed came from Montauk 17 owners who repowered with the Mercury 90 Fourstroke CT engine. I would not dismiss them and go with a generic prop calculator.

The Enertia Eco is the most expensive prop Mercury sells at $850-$900.

The Vengence is $500 and the Stiletto is $300.

Raise the engine.
