[QUOTE="Pappy, post: 283517, member: 3278"] Took a look at what you are pushing. The 10" diameter on the 7" pitch prop will be just what you are looking for. Larger blade area is what you need. General rule of thumb here is that if you want to go fast you propel a small column of water at a high speed and if you want to push a heavy load you propel a large column of water at a low speed. Think tug boat prop vs. a performance bass boat prop. Also, you do not want to lug a two stroke! Go for it. [/QUOTE]
