Tom C., do you still deal with the Stiletto props? I am currently running a 13 x 19 OMC stainless steel prop. Unfortunately my 90 HP Evinrude is mounted all the way down. I want to go two holes up from everything I've read on this site, but I hate to have to buy a new prop. What do you think will happen if go two holes up with my current prop?

Thanks, Tim

Try it and see. Your boat will go faster, accelerate better with less bow rise, there will be less steering torque and you;ll get better fuel economy.

Your motor will gain a couple hundred RPM at WOT too.
