Proper props

MajorAppeal

Hello All,
  I recently purchased a 2006 270 with the Volvo penta 5.7 OSI, it has the DPS outdrive (switched out from the XDP). How can I find out the correct prop size and angle for said engine, outdrive, and vessel? Attached are photos of what is currently on there.

Before you buy anything check out Hill Marine bravo 3 4x4 props!! I have a 270 and the boat is a dog to get on plane. The 4x4 will get you on plane faster. Check them out

I will purchasing them in May. The have an exchange policy of 30 days to make sure you get the proper pitch. This will NOT add speed, but will help boat jump on plane. I have a mercruiser with 22P , Hill Marine recommended the 19P. Just call them and tell them what you have and they will make a recommendation.
