Northlander what prop are you running on your 04 Explorer? What kind of speed, RPMs and such are you getting and would you do it again or try some other prop setup?

Your boat and mine are basicly the same hull I believe.

Thanks

The stainless I have on it now is a 13 by 17 Turbo. I run 5900 rpm at wot and get 42-43 mph with just me and about 40ish with another guy and gear. A lot depends on if I fill both live wells and where the weight is put etc. I run 2 batteries up front and 2 in back. If its empty and 1/4 tank I can push 45 mph.

The best alum prop I found was a Yamaha 13 3/4 by 17. Jay Soderbloom let me test props out but Im only 25 minutes from him. Call him he has some great knowledge and even better pricing. Just do a search for Soderbloom.

If ya have any more ? just e-mail me its below.

I think I get to come in so far with the smallest motor used on my 16' 1973 Crestliner.

6 H.P. Evinrude Fisherman (not sure on year... early 70's is my guess) I'd still challenge the reliability of that motor vs. anything else out there though! Starts EVERY time!

I do have a 1977 15hp Montgomery Ward Seaking needing a tuneup though. Not sure how good these motors are but I have one.

1988 Johnson 60 on a 1986 Alumacraft Competitor 165. With 2 people and a full load of gear and gas it pushes the boat at 28+ mph on gps. The minnkota on the bow will push it over 3 mph. haha And I love the Ipilot!
