Any prop suggestions for running a 25 hp 2stroke Merc on a Copperhead. I am about 5" out and 3" high since it will be mounted on a CMC tilt and trim unit?

Thanks,
Mario

Call the folks at Powertec.....

I second the Power Tech rec - When you call them they will spend some time with you. Also, they will trade a prop back if you are not satisfied. When I called them for a prop for my new 30 tohatsu he knew exactly what prop I should use. Good luck George

I would start with SRA 4 Blade 12 pitch or SRA 3 blade 13 pitch.

Capt Ron, would I lose a little top end with the 4 vs. the 3?

You will most likely lose about 2 mph on the top end with a 4 blade but you would get a better hole shot and plane at slower speeds. I'm using the 4 blade when I distribute weight aft.
