Post Mult Props
Is it common to have multiple props and change based on trip loading ? 14 hp SD

Prop # 1
9x10 it does great when I’m alone (23.4 mph yesterday). Bogs down under load. Got 5.8 mph with 3 people.

Prop # 2
10x6 does great under load but runs slow all the time 15 mph max.

Think of prop # 3
9x8 ??

Most people go with a happy medium, but if you want to change props all the time, go for it. Pretty common on outboard boats. We used to change ours depending on whether day would be skiing that day or not. Needed one with a little more power to pull him up. :lol: If just the kids were going to be skiing and shit, we ran another prop with a little more speed.
