Wow! Very nice pics bro. I can't wait to splash mine. My 8 year old daughter keeps asking if the boat is fixed. She will be the second one to get a ride, I gotta break-in the new gearbox first

It was really a great time. The CEO liked the new boat, she was even asking me how much a new paint job would cost and told me to get a new trailer cause the one with holes in the fenders is ugly.
I left the house on Friday with a fairly short "todo" list, by the time I drove home Sunday the list was a whole page again.
Cushions for the cabin, in line scuppers, fat boy helm seat, etc.....

I would reccomend having your current prop repitched. I've had excellent luck with having props repitched to higher pitchs(not so good of luck with decreasing though). Or you could have them put some cup in the blade, but ALUMINUM(ESPESCIALLY SUZUKI'S) tends to not hold a cup for long.randlemanboater said:

I priced some SS props and some 4 blade aluminuminum today, I wont be buying a new SS, thats fer sher.
The kid at the parts counter seemed to talk a good game, but he suggested that if I go to more pitch that I decrease the diameter of the prop, seems to me, that would defeat the purpose.

It seems from what I can find that you have to use a prop specific to a Johnson/Suzuki 4 stroke even specific down to 60 hp to 140 hp.. It has 15 splines and it looks to be slightly less than 4 inches accross at the front of the prop (not the end where the exhaust comes out, it is about 4 1/4 ")
