Author	Topic:   13-footer, 40-HP
Knockoff	posted 10-11-2007 07:26 PM ET (US)         I have a 1988 Johnson 40-HP outboard motor which still makes my 1960 Boston Whaler 13-footer move right along. I'm looking for some suggestions to help get the boat [to accelerate] faster, but not reducing top speed. I will I find out what [propeller] is on there now. I can assure you its stock though. Thanks in advance.
