Propman - hook a brother up with a recommendation
Hi guys,
Need to get a little help with prop selection here.
Currently running a 2005 Merc 115hp 4-stroke.
Manual states min WOT: 5,000rpm
manual states max WOT: 6,000rpm
Current prop setup:
13-1/4" x 17p
At max RPM I am running at 5,000rpm and 35mph (on GPS). The motor is mounted to a 2005 Lowe FM175 (17.5' deep v-aluminum). That is with two adults, no fishing gear, and 15 gallons of fuel. Motor is trimmed properly, not certain what hole the motor is mounted in.
Any recommendations either for pitch or OD? Would like to operate a bit closer to the 6,000rpm range when throttle is wide open.
Thanks,
Rook
