I’m going to try my 24p quicksilver choppers cuz I have em. But wondering if I can pull a taller prop with the tq of the 4t engines. Any thoughts gents. Thanks RM

7k lbs. plus people etc. Not sure how many lol

1.75 to 1 gear ratio.

these are the props that were on the evinrude V8s. Not sure if a chopper is the best prop for the hull or not.

they aren’t rigged yet. Finishing up my blown 48 ford anglia project in the next couple weeks then rigging the boat should run good and be way better on fuel.

Bobs sell nose cones for the yami 4t engines?

thanks

Ive been running Suzuki props on my boat 16” dia 3 blade with a lot of cupping. Would be similar to Merc Eco enertia. I like them a lot, but they are old 2007s that can’t keep the hub in. Experimenting with bravo 22s now. I might go with a set new Suzuki’s 16x23s because I saw my local dealer has them for just over $500.

Id also like to try bravo 1 FS, maybe the 26.
