I also just realized that if I'd been SMART, I would have asked why the boat had a 14x19 on it before I bought it. Oh well...live and learn. I still would have bought it...just too nice to pass...

BTW, I have been reading up. What I cannot seem to find is what the probable effect of a 15.5x19 versus a 14.5x21 in the same wheel might be. Also, I read quite a bit about how some props elevate the...
