So I picked up a 1985 30hp Johnson on craigslist the other day and it didnt come with a prop. The boat will be a Alweld 1652 flatbottom with a dry weight of 380lbs. I want to order a SS prop and the selection to choose from is very limited. I was looking at the Solas NEW saturn because the price was about half of the other SS props. I havent got the boat yet, but i am going to make the move within the next few weeks. I will have 2 batteries and light tackle to an overall rig weight less than 900lbs. I was thinking of a 13p. I have a tach and a GPS to see where im at once i run it, but would like to get a ballpark of where i should start as far as pitch... Again, I bought a motor without a prop so i have nothing to test from the start. Any help would be greatly appreciated
