[QUOTE="erictetterton, post: 359790, member: 10483"] I have a 1648 sea ark flat bottom with a 85 Johnson 30hp. Right now I have a 10.1x 13p SS prop that turns 5950rpm @29mph with just me in the boat. I have a 24v system up front for my riptide 80 as well as a cooler to store gear. It jumps up on plane fine. I am trying to decide if I want to go with the Solas new Saturn SS 10x14 or 10x15 due to my motor over revving with my current setup. I am afraid the 15p may be a hair too much and it would put me below the 5200rpm mark if I have another soul onboard. Any suggestions or opinions on my setup? Here's a pic of what I'm working with https://i1342.photobucket.com/albums/o768/erictetterton/7EEEE6FD-A18D-4631-B8F8-5EBA20DE8BB7_zpsxcn4zwl3.jpg https://i1342.photobucket.com/albums/o768/erictetterton/1347309B-F3FA-480B-8FF8-993D0F27E950_zps1azsurz2.jpg https://i1342.photobucket.com/albums/o768/erictetterton/5135DF8E-3B54-4AC9-8856-BD22004443FE_zpsulbfcdnm.jpg [/QUOTE]
