Default Props

Just wondering what people are finding to be a versatile prop pitch for the fishing boats out there. I suspect in the lower hp range this makes less of a difference but those with a 75 to 150 hp or even more, I'm curious as to what people have been finding. From discussions with another member, I don't believe I'm the only one thinking about a prop switch.

I'm currently running a 15 on a 90hp to a 165 Alumacraft dominator. My hole shot is great, but I feel a bit light on the tope end at around 33 to 34 mph and was sort of hoping I could have less idle speed (I'd love to have an idle speed of around that 2.5 mph but currently closer to 3.5 mph). I'm more then willing to give a bit on the hole shot to slow down the idle and increase the top end. Any thoughts on this? For what its worth I'm running a 90 hp Etec.

Kris
