We are going to tip toe out for a couple of hours tomorrow from Northney just put a new 23" prop on, so i am like a child with a new toy.
Is the Light house open at Haslar never been so a change would be nice.

I think so bit unsure, we had a standard 23" black yamaha prop but it suffered from cavation and a bit of over reving
This new one is a Yamaha salt water polished S/S M22"
at W.O.T 44kts at 6000 rpm 4 up 3/4 tank but we are going to try the M24"
As they do not make a 23" ?. Trouble is the 22" was great acelaration but it felt like it was reving stright a way perhaps its because i have been used to the stanard prop.
