can you run different size props on twin engine boat
this may seem like a stupid ? but i was wondering if i can run a 30pitch on 1 side and a 32 on the other.the reason i ask is the 32's are the faster props but we broke a prop shaft and only have 1 32 pitch.just don't want to do any damage but would like to see if i pick up and mph.

I don't think it will hurt anything. I also don't think it will be faster. The motor with the 32 will just be bogged down a couple hundred rpm's. May get very strange handling quirks, possibly dangerous. Especially turning or decelerating. Be very carefull.
