Hey huffpower, what lake do you go to the most. I usually go to Bartlett. I was wondering if you know how strict the noise level is at Saguaro lake or Canyon lake. My boat is noisy at idle but ok at a cruse. I have a blown 454 and over the top headers in a runner bottom boat.

MRIRONASS,
Try the 11 1/2 x 15. I use a 11 1/4x16 2 blade SS and a 12x16 2 blade steel on my 21' Howard. Both work well on the top end, but the 12" accelerates better. Also these boats usually handle better with the 2 blade.
