I believe that changing the propeller to accommodate reduced engine power output at altitude is a common technique used by boaters. The shop [that is selling me a new engine] said I certainly would need [two] different propellers: one propeller for high altitude, and one propeller for the coast [at...

I plan to buy a four-stroke-power-cycle engine with fuel-injection and use it at altitudes that range from sea level to 9,500-feet.

Does fuel-injection as used in a HONDA or TOHATSU 40-HP or 50-HP engine produce a benefit for high-altitude performance?

Hello, I’ve seen some very knowledgeable folks on [CONTINUOUSWAVE.COM]. I hope to get their advice to keep me from making any mistakes with my boat. I’ve come into possession of a [1997 or 1998--ALWAYS USE FOUR DIGITS FOR A YEAR] Dauntless 13. The boat has been in my family since it was new. I love ...
