great info thanks!

The propshaft hight ( x-dim.) is about 5.1/8 diffrent between a #6 and a #3 or 3a it is the same on a 4 or 5 thogh.
And yes it plays a big roll in turning props !!!!

Also ,,,in is sternlift ,,out is bowlift on a V bottom ,,,not on a cat !!!

On some boats ,,it does not make a diffrents at all thogh.

It also depends on what props ,,,diameter and blades ,,not pitch !

I sometimes wonder why I respond and do the research to find the right answer and help and people dont even take the time to read...

Maybe if you owned an apache we would listen to you.

just for that I'm gonna hit your brother, lol..I didn't make the rules, but I know you have to have read this thread and seen my quotes from a dude that has forgotten more about setups than we will ever know...yet "someone" who "knows it all" still posts that we are wrong.....See ya at joels this year? how about you doing the bimini run in your 41?

I am with you on this prop in or out tried it on my boat rides a lot looser spinning in.

exactly, it creates bow lift and brings more out of the water. to quote Robert Duvall in days of Thunder, loose is fast, on the verge of out of control...but hey I'm just a guy with a 42 cig, a cousin of you guys 41...and you never know which Apache I may end up with

Not to change the subject,but when doe's Jelly Fish open ?

Let's all play nice

I'm pretty sure it will be open for memorial kickoff if not before, weather permitting. I still need to get the drives back on the Tiger. The reason I knew about the props is I talked with Tres, very poignantly about the affects of turning them in on the Tiger and what to expect. He gave me some great advice and told me a few things that I would not have expected. Like putting in a spacer for cleaner water, even with a notch. and I'm always nice, just blunt nice

Well, i quess u shold believe Tres then .LOL

For all the rest ,,u better off trying it !!!
