Speed Loss by Rotating Props Out?
#11
Most boats will run faster with the props turning outboard but will not handle as will. When docking remember to speed up the engine that is in reverse, that prop is less efficient.

so switch the throws, moving the cable from top to bottom, vice versa and switch props is all that I need to do.
this will give me some speed gains, top or bottom?

Yep.
Suppose to be more top end with them spinning in, 1-2 mph??, but I seen no lose when I changed to spinning out.

None that can speak of.
Mine feels way more stable while running now. Once you go out, you won't go back in.
