Hope ur not in the prop business with that theory.

Not at all, just a regular guy who loves boating just like you. A while ago it was explained that way to me and I have always kept it in mind while driving my boats......knock on wood I have had goo luck with drives......if I am wrong by all means I will eat my words but it made sense to me and was simply passing along my theory. At theend of the day I am easy coming out of the hole as well as easy while accelerating.

Any one else have a different theory or advice? I am open to hearing as I obviously do not want to start chewing up drives......

Jay

Hmmmmmm, I sure would like to test drive the right hand one of those on my cat With the snow all disappearing, I find myself looking at the shrink wrap and counting the days until boating season is back.

Did you send me a pm? Never got it.
