It came in the mail with no hub so I sourced one from a local prop shop. I also forgot to mention - I had a bonehead moment when installing the Enertia. Going out of two different areas so I'll have to wait till Sunday to try it as I can stand up at a sand bar and change the prop. Only reason being is that it's in great shape and "she" only wants 100 bucks for it! It'll probably be a full weekend of boating for me. ![]() Water sports is rare, but I can always swap the prop as we have shallow dredged area.Ĭlick to expand.This weekend I'm going to pick up the SWSII 15.5 x 17 prop. More importantly - I'll post up my findings! We use it mostly for cruising, and getting somewhere quick if we need too. I'll get all these numbers down, then go to the local prop shop for further tinkering if needed. I want to at least go out with 3 props to try. If the Merc prop falls through, I'll see what else I can find. Shop that tuned my ECU mentioned I should go up to at least a 16" diameter.

I've never heard of Voyager props, and neither has any of the prop shops around here, or the place that flashed my ECU. I really hope a "swap" didn't occur.īoat should be running way faster than it is. I know they had just serviced it, but that's not something easily forgotten. ![]() Also when I purchased my boat, the prop didn't have a cotter pin in it. Prop: 15x17 Voyager<<<<< My current problem.
