What PROP ?
 
what would be the best prop for my boat? 28 ft power boat running single 350 hp diesel 1to1 and surface drive? does any one have any ideas?

What is the max rpm for the engine?????

baja89drc 08-17-2010 05:26 PM

3200 rpm

I would figure its a 55-60mph or so boat with that power. I would guess something in the 24 pitch range, but that can also be affected a lot by prop diameter.

You can plug and play with some numbers here http://go-fast.com/Prop_Slip_Calculator.htm
and here http://go-fast.com/boat_speed_predictions.htm

On a 28 single engine V bottom, I would expect slip to be 14-18%
