Re: 10hp longtail prop size depends on the boat and load,,,ive gota a 8x4 with a 11hp pushing a 14/36 rpms are 3800 with gov gone,,,light load,, heavy load she drops down too 3500rpms,,, i orderd a 7x4 at the same time to compare,, and i lost some speed but rpms jumped up too 4200,,,,if your looking to chew through the mud and veg alot,,the smaller will be good on a similar boat,,i prefer the 8x4 for better top speed....
