Hi everyone, I have a 23' Hydro Sport Walkaround. When I purchased the boat, the engine that was on it was all kinds of wrong. The old engine was a Evinrude 200 with the wrong shaft length and wrong prop size. So I don't have any credible data to start with on my repower. I recently purchased an Evinrude E-Tec 225 H.O. to repower the boat. I tried in putting my data into prop calculators but they are all over the place depending on the website. I'm trying to avoid blindly throwing props at it looking for the right one. It's a fishing boat so I'm looking for an efficient Cruise speed and fuel efficiency with light to moderate load. I am open to 3 or 4 blade applications. These are some of my specs.
Evinrude Etec 225 H.O.
1.86 gear ratio
4800 lbs. Before people and gear/ normally 2 people
19' at the water line.
The engine is also mounted on a extension bracket so it is 48" from the back of the hull to the prop. Not sure if this makes a difference. I am open to any questions and know most of my specs.
Thanks.
