Re: NAUSET 16 with 90-HP; Propeller Ventilates in Rough Seas
With the OP furnishing the model year, we now know the lower unit gear ratio is 2.09:1 Owners with this engine recommend the 13.15 x 17 Mercury Vengance for the 16/17-foot hulls. Of the 97 prop recommendations I have cataloged, Turning Point is not listed. Phil---I do t [do or don't] see a VENGEANC...

Re: NAUSET 16 with 90-HP; Propeller Ventilates in Rough Seas
Correction I have the [FLOR-TORQ IV] hub installed.
I will get in touch with Turning Point. I will likely get a Mercury propeller designed for this engine and classic Boston Whaler boat combo.
Thanks again. This is a great resource

Re: NAUSET 16 with 90-HP; Propeller Ventilates in Rough Seas
I’m not sure how the original owner ended up with this propellor selection but I am curious to know what propellor Boston whaler would recommend for this hull-engine combination operating in these sloppy, busy harbor northeast Atlantic type conditions.
Thanks again
John
Thanks again

Re: NAUSET 16 with 90-HP; Propeller Ventilates in Rough Seas
The engine is a 2017 FOURSTROKE 90 EFI. I don’t believe it is a [Command Thrust]. Ser #2b490###
The propeller is a stainless [steel] [TURNING POINT] number 31431512. 13.75 x 15 with a [FLO TORQ III] hub.
In 2019 I bought the NAUSET with this engine and propeller.

NAUSET 16: Hold-down Anchors for Cooler
I recently purchased a 1970 Nauset 16. It’s obviously been through a lot of modifications. Lots of screws have been installed and removed over its 50 years. Currently it has a rather small Carolina skiff console installed which makes it easy to walk from bow to stern. I have an old 40-quart YETI Rou...
