- 2 Mercruiser 350 MAG MPI w/V-drives
Funny what the survey missed. Boat is hauled out for engine work (leaking oil pan and other attention while out...). It was discovered that one prop is a Michigan Dynajet 16x17. The other is a yet to be determined brand by the prop shop, maybe Acme, 16x17 but with larger blade area and shape.
While I have been sorting out performance and RPM issues with the boat, matching props sure helps rule out things... what is a good prop size/pitch for this boat? From what I understand and have read on here, 16x17s were factory size props. Before I consider total both prop replacement to a new size, my plan is to just get another dynajet 16x17 to match them. The current dynajet is in great condition. The unknown prop has seen better days..
V-Drives. Twin 300hp (well maybe 300 after all the tuning and work is done...) Mercruiser 350 MAG MPIs
Thanks in advance for any info.

Ben
