Author	Topic:   1969 MONTAUK 17 with New Yamaha F90
SonOfAGunnin	posted 09-22-2010 02:56 PM ET (US)      [On a 1969 Boston Whaler MONTAUK 17 with a] new Yamaha F90 four-cycle motor, [the engine speed is] limiting out at WOT. Shopping [for propellers] is a general [pain] so I'm hoping another forum member has the same or similar set-up and can advise. Thanks in advance! John

I've only had her out once, she's being kept at a marina, and my work schedule has only allowed me one day off in the last couple of weeks. Unfortunately, it will be a couple of weeks before my next day off! I'll post the numbers up as soon as I'm able to. Thanks again, John.
