What is the ratio of the transmission?

Makes no difference what is turning the propeller, what matters is how fast it is turning and what the water line length and displacement of your boat is.

Mike , You are telling us what you want and where you want to

use it but you are leaving out some critical answers. Without knowing your propeller shaft speed, no one can say what size propeller to use.

Use an Indigo Prop

The indigo prop is designed for use with atomic 4 engines and standard shaft size. I think they run 300.00 USD. I put on eon my Ranger 33 and never looked back to the 2 blade folding Martec. It will boost your Engine RPM from a lugging 1300 to close to 2000. Engine runs quieter and smoother. With the 2 to 1 Reduction in the reverse train, you 'll have to get used to winding your A4 up. That said the indigo doesnt have much prop walk because its efficient blade design.
