I have a 2007 20 foot pontoon boat with a 60 hp OB Mercury 4 stroke ( not bigfoot) with a 12.75x9.5 prop on it. I know that a pontoon boat with a 60 hp is not going to move very fast but mine seems that the prop is just spining without much thrust. It will go about 14 mph according to GPS. I was wanting to know what prop I could change to to give me more top end, I don't care much about hole shot. I can get it to go to WOT or about 6000 is as high as I have ever pushed it with no problem. I would like to pull a tube with it but it is not much fun at this speed.
