If you do anything near shore I would go for aluminum prop. esp with the sand bars and such around here. I bought aluminum and like the price tag of a SS one. 2 AL for the price of 1 SS.

First and foremost take the boat out and run it WOT and see what RPMs you are getting. This is from Accu-prop and then go see them.

Just got it back from the Prop. Shop, super nice man named Bill did it up for me...this thing is super sharp and super cupped...looks good can't wait to get it back on the boat. 13 1/2 19pitch with exhaust holes.

It's what I had on the boat so no change in size on pitch but will be looking forward to check out what this cup job is going to do for me.

Let us know how it does. I am interested to see how much of a change it did with the cupping and addition of the exhaust holes. I have my old SS prop and now the exhaust holes are plugged and was thinking about putting it on to see if there was a difference.
