Hi Guys,
I just bought a 2004 Checkmate Pulse 185BR. I bought it without an engine or controls. Just ordered a 2015 Evinrude Etec 175 and I am having a difficult time deciding on a prop. The dealer I bought the engine from carries the BRP line of props, so from what I've read it sounds like a raker would be the best to try out first. Anyone used this prop and what pitch would be recommended? They mentioned that they also have the viper in stock. The boat will be strictly used for cruising, not towing etc. It has a power lift jack plate (6" setback) and hydraulic steering. Obviously would like something with good hole shot and best top end speeds. I am a new member on this forum, any feedback would be helpful. Thanks
