I just got a used 2010 East Cpae Caimen powered with a 40 hp Evinrude ETEC.
Have tested two junk aluminum props just to get some numbers:
- 13 1/4" 19 pitch (4600 rpms)
- 13 1/4" 17 pitch (5400 rpms)
I am mainly looking for top end but I dont want to be a dog out of the whole. Will sacrafice a little hole shot to gain on top end. I also do a lot of camping so I am loaded down often.
Spoke with power tech and they recomded the powertech RED 13 1/4" 16 pitch.
Another option I have seen that has given good results for others is the ETEC Viper prop.
Any thoughts? Any advice is greatly appreciated.
If anyone here is in miami and has a 40-60 ETEC prop I would love to meet up and test. Would be awesome because these dealers want 50 buks each time to re-stock a prop.
Thanks,
Matt
