Your engine manual should have a max achievable RPM listed. If you mash the throttle and can't get to that RPM, you need to dial in finer pitch. Andrew Burton 61 W Narragansett Newport, RI USA02840 http://sites.google.com/site/andrewburtonyachtservices/ +401 965-5260 > On Dec 17, 2017, at

While motoring in forward gear, run the engine at full throttle. Your engine should be able to reach maximum, or close to maximum rated rpm. If not, your pitch is to high. If the engine runs much higher than maximum rated rpm at full throttle, your pitch is too low. Alan Bergen 35 Mk III Thirst

Be sure you know your transmission ratio, prop-hull clearance, ideal engine RPM, etc. before you rely on a simple calculation. This is a question that seems like it should have a simple answer but "...it depends on several other parameters.." so a simple answer could be wrong. If the Max-Prop a

Can your SB8 achieve full rated RPM either in calm or choppy conditions? Calypso's 3 blade MAX prop was intentionally over pitched (by 10%) for many years. I did this to allow calm water hull speed at an engine RPM "smooth spot". Worked fine for most PNW inland waters. For our trip around Vanc
