My guess would be the 14x26 Volvo "Ultra" stainles.I had a similar combo on an old Donzi and it could not have worked better.

I really like what you have done to that 20 Cig, Would love to find one for a winter project.

Good luck,

Kurt.

thanks......that 14x26 was too much prop for the old set-up , I was kinda thinking it may be a good place to start too....the whole prop game is a new concept to me though...although changing sprockets on a bike would be along the same lines i guess...

Sean said there was one on traderonline for around 8k ... it is a fun little boat...great for the river we run in most of the time...

say the word and I'll trade my top pea shooter for your top gun for a weekend
