    Not exactly sure what your usual prop should be but if it's a ski boat for slalom or your just going to warp around a bunch .
    It looks like you have a prop - aluminum on there . If you don't know the water - keep it till you know the rocky or shallow spots . See how that works out and progress from it to a nice SS . Aluminum is nice and soft to make some mistakes and doesn't send the shock into lower . Hope this helps

    I had the same boat in green flake with an 85 v4 Evinrude that I swapped for a 115 tower. Mine was a Sidewinder, pre Thompson, I believe. Fun times with that thing. I think I had a 24 on mine.
    You cannot bring about prosperity by discouraging thrift. You cannot strengthen the weak by weakening the strong. You cannot help the wage earner by pulling down the wage payer. You cannot further the brotherhood of man by encouraging class hatred. You cannot help the poor by destroying the rich. You cannot keep out of trouble by spending more than you earn.
