    Prop suggestions. 1997 Crownline 182BR 5.7 Merc Cruiser.

    Recently purchased this boat. Has 4 blade prop now with a top speed of about 48.. I'm looking for suggestions on a top speed prop & a good all around prop. Pitch & diameter. Thank you.

    HP, rpm, details of current prop (pitch, diameter, type ex Trophy) would help. What rpm do you turn now and what is the maximum recommended rpm range? It's still a crapshoot for me. I don't know anything about that type of boat, but anyone would want details to recommend a prop.

    Thank you... I have not had it on the water yet.. The current prop is a Quicksilver 2182P16 15"/16p.. I know I want to go to a 3 blade prop for sure. I will add more boat info when I have it. Thanks again.
