I had the big mercruisers

I have a set of 3 blade 23x24 slightly cupped left over from converting from gas to diesel.

Doug, The name of my boat is Fair Tide. Happy to show it to you anytime.

yes 315s and 21x22 4 blade props. Exhaust 5 inch straight out the back, velocijet ports glassed over. I believe you have 21x21, I went with the same as Al from Mattapoisett boat yard has on his 33 Sportfish. I am WOT at 3800 so your size might be a tad better match.

Thank you all for the input. It's most useful. Great 4th and summer to all of you.
