    I think you are right about that heavy casting deck in the bow. Maybe you can make one out of plywood and replace it. Also, I was always taught that at WOT, the correct prop will get the rpms as close as possible to the max rpms of the motor without going over. If the max rpm of that motor is 6000, I would shoot for 5800 at WOT. That's great that you have the tachometer now and the new stainless prop is nice and will be helpful. Keep up the good work.

      Great to see you healing up,somewhat ! Well as that SS prop's more agressive pitch & rake is moving more water, it loads up the motor and RPM are held back. Indeed, less dead weight in front is called for before you tinker again with prop size, rake and pitch variations. At least, now the tach gives you a reliable measuring tool. Keep safe !

    That's one nice prop for $35! It's a steal... Stainless steel. Less flex gives it less slip in the water and better speed than an aluminum prop of the same specs.. Only problem is just don't hit anything with this prop while running as it will break your drive shaft instead of the prop.

    Your putting a lb ot of stock in going faster , some boats are ment to go 30 and some are 50 and I think yours isn’t a 50 mph boat ! It could be the ribbing or the shape of your hull nEXAMPLE !!

      @@davekimbler2308 Hey. Yeah. Thats what I've been going through. Can't find anything wrong with the motor. Same compression, no water in the gearcase, timing hasn't changed, new plugs. boat bottom looks good. I've narrowed it down to the prop. That original prop is from the 70's, to bad the hub spun, but it has more rake then the other props and over the years its been ground down. I even buzzed it with the grinder to clean it up when I first got it. I measured it the other day and its no longer 13 diameter, it's now 12.5 diameter. Turning less metal its faster. Everyone talks diameter and pitch but nobody ever brings up Rake. I can still by that prop on ebay, new for about $100 but it will be 13 diameter. The only way to get under 13inch diameter is to go up to 21 pitch prop. Do I want to go 21, I dont know yet. Happy Holidays !

  • @frankstamps7053
    @frankstamps7053 2 роки тому +2

    It looks like that 19 pitch prop is a little too much pitch for your boat hull and weight in the boat. If you can find a stainless steel 17 pitch prop at the same diameter you should be 5500 to 6000 rpm and actually go faster. Stainless Steel props have thinner blades that are still much stiffer than Aluminum blades so they loose less pitch when running at top speed. When you lug an engine the boat can't go as fast. I have two stainless steel props for my 50 hp Johnson and the lower pitch prop is the faster prop. I will look at my spare stainless prop and see if by chance it is the one you need.

    • @THISOLDOUTBOARD1

      Hey Frank. Thanks again for tuning in. I have a 13x17 ss prop. It was the first one I tried a few episodes back, right before I put that beat up prop on and I always thought a 17p might be great for this boat. I had another guy tell me that every time he went down in pitch he got faster. Or did he mean diameter? Anyway, I was turning high rpms, around 6000 but no change in speed. Now the original prop seems to be the "leader" here. And what I've found out was, over the years its been "down sized" from grinding the edges. I even buzzed it with the grinder to clean it up when I first got it. I measured the blades from the center and they are now 6 inches which makes it a 12x19. Unfortunately I didn't have a tach before it spun out. So its leading me to believe smaller diameter, less drag, same pitch, is why its been the quiker prop.? And I think the rpm's were in range the way that thing ripped! Hahaha. I will try that ss 17p again when I replace that heavy casting deck , it was a nice smooth ride, and look around for a cheap 12x19. Thanks again & Stay tuned for the nexy episode !

      When I got my boat it came with 3 props, stainless 17, steel 17, and a steel 19 on the motor. I thought I was good with it until an ol' marina owner said to try the stainless. It comes out of the hole and on plane the exact same but I went from 5800 WOT to 6200 and gained 3mph -and the response while feathering wakes/swells seems much better. I agree with the less pitch being better.

    You should try a chiropractor for a few sessions and see if it helps you. They have ultrasound systems that can relax and help heal the sciatic nerve.

    I've got a 17 on my little 15ft Aluminum Star Craft open bow, get more RPM's and 34mph. Would LOVE to try a 19 pitch on the old 1984 70hp triple I have, and for 35 bucks? That's a steal. I've moved into the logging part of the year....and if I stop. I'm done. Arthur just runs wild and I won't get going again until the temps get past 70...so I endure. :) Hoping to build another 70hp, I have all the machine work done. I acquired a 75 "stinger" that might be a runner and an electric shift 50 triple that certainly is. Have three controllers to blend into one for that e-shifter..:) Hoping when winter sets in to get both of them going to test out this coming spring .. Please keep up the old outboard fun and games, keeps me remembering why I do this and gives hope for the summer :) Happy Holidays !

      @charlesronk2989 2 роки тому

      Yeah it is the smallest fiberglass one Bass Tracker made back then. I should have prefaced that by saying that is with one person. It does drop about 5mph when you add a second person. I'll try to check the prop tomorrow. It is backed into the garage with stuff piled all over it for winter now.
      2 years ago I forgot to fill the oil tank. I bought oil and left it at the campground. Things were so chaotic I thought I filled it as I just remembered buying the oil. That fall I ran it out and burned up the top cylinder. The audible alarm was corroded and never went off.
      I was going to overhaul it, but found a good deal on a 2012 75hp Evinrude etec. on Ebay. It was supposed to run good. When I got it, it didn't run at all. I now have almost as much into it as I could have bought a brand new motor, and it still doesn't run quite right.
      Now I am thinking I should get that 75hp fixed and sell it. Use the money to rebuild that 60hp. It is much lighter and actually about 6mph faster. I must admit I love the quietness of the new one and the easy starts, but parts are insane and seem like it takes nothing for them to go bad.
      In all the time I owned that 60hp I only put 1 new regulator rectifier on it and few new plugs that was it.
