My boat leans to the left in the mid throttle ranges. My wife was with me one time and asked why it was leaning to her side. I did not have the wisdom not to make a joke about her eating habbits even though I out weigh her by 80 lbs or so. Needless to say that trip did not go well.

I had the same problem once, but didn't dare say a word to my passenger. By the way, I stand 5'10". grin

Amazingly, I was still able to GPS 79.9mph that day.




Some folks mouths, flat out runs their minds.

Can you confirm that this is likely an issue with the prop tips being bent back at variouse degrees?

Also and advice on replacing a prop? I have the stock 19 pitch 13 3/4" 3 blade aluminum prop on the boat now.
Shall I go stainless? 4 or 5 blades maybe?


stay with a 3 blade. the sst prop will last alot longer than an alum. prop, but does cost ALOT more to purchase.
