My boat was wintered next to a sistership that was one year older and had the prior version of my engines (not common rail, "480" HP versus my "500"). But the sistership has bigger props with lower pitch.
My props are 24 x 27, while the sistership is sporting 26 x 26 wheels. Both are factory props (meaning that neither of us has done any consumer-engineering on our own). So my question is what would be the expected difference between these two configurations, and how much thought does SR put into prop size selection? I'm assuming they at least give it some thought.
