    What boat do you own? I have pulled my PGV 175 with our Ford Explorer with no issues.

    I didn’t go through the hull. I just ran the transducer cable over the transom. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    The 17p might be alright with that boat. If you are having issues with the stock prop switch to a 4 blade Hustler. I tried about 5 different props on mine and this current prop is the top performing prop I’ve had. I’ve been told by a few that 4stroke motors should be run near the middle of...

    I got a chance to get the boat out today. Over the winter I purchased another Hustler 4 blade 17p this one stainless steel. I bought it as used off Amazon for $86. What a steal that was. It looked like it was brand new. Top speed was 39.5 mph turning 5400 rpm’s. Sent from my iPhone...

    I put my Garmin Striker plus 93sv alongside the stock Lowrance on the console. I also have my little Lowrance XOG on the left for lake maps. I put a Garmin Echomap plus 63cv on the bow. Looks pretty good and not sure if you could get any two larger units up there without raising them higher and...

    It’s a common problem with those mercury motors. Father in law had a 90hp and it did it from day 1. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Turning Point Hustler Model# 21431730 is a 17p if you’re not going to pull a tube or waterski. 21431530 is a 15p for water sports or heavy loads. Best price I’ve found is on iboats.com although eBay could have it for less. The hub in your black max will fit in the hustler.

    I’m pretty sure your older boat is different than the newer boats. With the stock prop I’d get prop ventilation when I got the trim gauge up to the first mark. The 4 blade prop cured that ill. Can’t hit 40mph though. They say that in dash speedo is gps, but I’ve never heard of an analog...

    You don’t want to go to a 19. I have no idea how Tony’s motor is able to swing that prop. Mine can’t at the rpms he claims to rev. You need to go the other way. Try a 15 pitch 4 blade. What is your wide open throttle rpms? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Yep it’s a deep v. When I add a 2nd battery for the trolling motor upgrade next year that will go under the rod locker as well. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    2018 Pro Guide V 175 Combo Prop Testing

    So I’ve tried 4 different props now. I can’t get my boat to run any faster than 38mph. 13p 32mph @ 6000 rpms , 15p 38mph @ 6000 rpms, 17p 38mph @5300rpms, 19p 38mph @ 5000 rpms. What gives? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
