You need the duoprop as the blade load on heavy boats gets too high with under 15" diameter props so they perform better with 2
Thats why Seven Marine have them as well
Dont forget Merc knew this and made a HP engine the Deuce High, 2 speed duo prop outboard years ago.
Not my line of country Pilgrim ———— there’s a huge gap of the last twenty years ——— that’s when I became totally disillusioned with all things nautical———- UIM—— RYA—— boating politics and everything connected. Switched off——— left it to its own devices and watched it sink ever deeper into the mire.
