    Baja Speed

    Do you know what kind of a speed increase you can gain by upping the pitch by 1"?. Just trying to figure out if it's going to be worth doing if the increase is minimal.I don't want to "water a dead tree" if you know what I mean. Thanks Jim

Does this sound about right, and how much of a speed increase do you...

    Baja Speed

    Hello all again, I was wondering if anyone has an idea how fast a 1983 Baja 16SS should go with a Mariner 70HP outboard, and a 10-1/4"X14 pitch prop? I have clocked it with my GPS at only 33mph max! (there isn't a speedo in this boat) This seems to me to be a bit slow considering a boat I had...
