WHich prop to use - ptucker119 - 05-03-2023

I have a 1992 Tiara 270 sport and have 2 19 pitch propellers on the boat. I am having a hard time getting the boat to plain when it is full of gas and water and 4 or more people. Does anyone know if using a 17 pitch would help or is this a normal issue with the boat
Thanks in advance.

Yes decreasing the pitch of the props will definitely help it get on plane. The flip side is that you will lose speed for a given RPM.
