I have a 2004 Tracker PT 175 with a 4 stroke 60HP EFI Mercury on the back. Currently running a Mercury 3 blade prop with a pitch of 15.
I'm running about 34mph with this setup at 5250 rpm's. When I trim up to try and get a couple extra mph's, I start to porpoise. I was on glass flat water over the weekend and I couldn't trim up too far or else I would get the porpoising.
I'm thinking of going with a 14 pitch prop, but I doubt that is going to help my porpoising problem.
