Mcleanp82 Posted July 5, 2020 Report Share Posted July 5, 2020 16’ redfisher with Yamaha f90 tlrb. Running a Yamaha turbo 13 1/4” x 19” prop, motor mounted one hole off the bottom. Top end is a solid 43.5mph per gps full of fuel, batteries, and trolling motor. Though I don’t want to loose top-end my hole shot suffers, especially with passengers. Time to plane with one passenger and me in rear seat is a good 4-6 seconds with lots of bow rise. Thinking about going to a 17p 4 blade like the mercury spitfire x7 or similar. Would love to hear what similar setups have settled on. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mcleanp82 Posted October 10, 2020 Author Report Share Posted October 10, 2020 A little update... I purchased a quicksilver q4 13x17p and am pretty *** happy. 5900-6000 rpm light. Much better hole shot. 42mph top end. Sticks really well in turns. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hightailin18 Posted November 9, 2020 Report Share Posted November 9, 2020 On the gps I’m seeing wot at 62mph my tach took a dump so not sure of rpms I know that the motor isn’t screaming like it did before . And I’ll definitely see you out there soon ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With my new prop ( Power tech SCD4R 13 x 15 pitch 4 blade) I'm at 40.5 mph with cooler, trolling, 3 batts, 2 power poles, gear, 25 gal of fuel and myself.

Tallawah Posted June 10, 2021 Report Share Posted June 10, 2021 Sallow Minded - Are you running a jack plate ? I have the same boat but with a Bobs Jack plate with a 4" set back I am having issues with a prop cavitation I am now running a Solas Amita 13d x 15p - 4 blade and not happy with the top end but love the hole shot. i have been told to put double cup into the prop to stop cavitation on the turns I can not get the jack plate over 3 before I blow out . Any info / input is appreciated. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
