I have a 27 Yamaha Pro series 3 blade sitting idly by if you are interested. I am assuming it is the same shaft size as the 2.6L....

Mitchie......... I'm going up to ps this weekend so I'm going to purswade Ricky to take it to work with him so I can grab it while I pay way too much for fuel...

As far as big boy prop goes I offered to let you try my big 30 ( that my boat spins within the motors operating range) but I think you said something like " I don't want to rip my sail " .. I can't quite remember your exact words.. But along those lines..

Well if for some reason you and Richard do not connect I will drop the prop at Mitchie's place then in Owen Sound this weekend. Legend has it the prop was cut from a larger prop of more power. That part isn't true or but it will be in OS :)

I've got props you could try that are probably too big. 30 & 31 Triton.
And a very old 32 2 blade bronze Merc prop.

We'll be at Cooch on the long weekend.

No not THIS time... Williams lake is why i bought the GP... Seriously... the only reason.. by the time i get on plane i'm at the end..


but i figure i can talk mitchie into a couple of beers so that would be great if you could drop it there... so i will try the prop at the west lake G2G the following weekend..
