Well after reading numerous posts with the beginning lines reading how do I set up or what prop or HP.....I have come to the conclusion that we need to have a data base for all of this information if it does not exist as of yet. So here is my proposal.
Everyone should submit the following information.
Boat model and year:
I/O or outboard:
Engine manu. and size, Horse power:
Prop manu., model, pitch and diameter:
RPM's at full throttle:
GPS speed:
Amount of fuel in gal.:
Number of bodies on board during run:
List any modification to the hull or engine and special set up:
With this information I will create an excel spread sheet that can be posted for everyone to review and see what others are doing to get more performance out of the boat. This can also be used as a quick referance chart for anyone thinking of modifying their boats.
Also I would hope that Checkmate will also refer to this to see if they could offer any of these items on the factory specification.
Just a thought, let me know what all of you think.
