My boat is a 44DS with the Yanmar 4JH4E. I have had a 15" diameter Max Prop since the boat was new and I've been pretty happy with it for 8 years. I run the Yanmar at 2300-2400 RPM and that usually delivers 7 -7-1/2 knots. Lately I've been wondering if I should increase the pitch a bit next Spring and maybe get another half knot or more. I'm currently running a pitch of 15, which corresponds to a Max Prop angle setting of 24 degrees. So I'm wondering what other guys are using for a setting on their Max Props. I'd appreciate your input very much.
