Thanks Ray
 
Some of you probably saw my post, about a month ago, that I was looking for a good used stainless steel prop. Ray PM'ed me and said he had one he'd give me. After several failed attempts to meet up with Ray, I finally caught him while on my way to Grand Isle last week. I put the prop on that night and the boat runs like a champ now. This site seems to be full of good people. Thanks again Ray. :D

If you were in toe deep water and out of shape having to push his boat off that reef I think you'd have second thoughts!!!!!!!!!!!!!:D


Other than that he is one heck of a guy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ray 04-07-2010 09:44 PM

Glad it worked out good. Did it run like the other prop.?
Or was there any difference in speed, hole shot?
There as a lot of difference in the two props. Just wondering...

LOL, with my boat I'm not sure you can call it "hole shot" but it was better, and I didn't have my gps to verify it but the speed seemed better too. Only thing is it may need to be pitched down a little for me, maxed out I'm turning about 4900rpm(the old aluminum was turning 5900) but with a lot of weight onboard. Good thing is I can have it pitched for about 1/5 the price of what I was going to pay.

Yep, it needs to be tuned down some. You need to run at around 5500 rpms. with a 2 stroke Mercury.
But at least you can still fish.

My old alligator/duck hunting boat departed Cameron during Rita. It was found a few months later, under Dr. Smyth's house at Pelican Point.
The boat was upside down, under a bunch of debris. The motor was froze up, the only things I was able to save off of it was the motor cover, foot and the prop. I got rid of everything but the prop., no one wanted it.
It sat in the shed for 5 years. My wife wanted it gone, but I didn't want to throw it away. Couldn't even sell it on Ebay.
My buds and I got a new motor but lost the boat again for Ike. Never found her.
