    2021 lynx 300merc prop to pad?

    Hey all so I’m around 30 hrs now since I got the boat just before Christmas. I’ve gotten more comfortable with boat and getting it out of the water and higher speeds. I hit 79.9 on the river this past Tuesday and the boat feels as if there is more there. Rpm was 6,000. So question is what should my prop to pad be for a good start point.

    Thanks Brian.

    This is all regulated by the amount of steering torque, as every boat, engine, prop and load is different. You want a slight amount of torque, and if there is too much you are too high.
