I currently run the Yamaha Reliance 14 1/4" with a 18-pitch props it came with, but the cavitation is so bad it's chewing off the zinc fins. I'm hitting 39 knots at 5700 but there is crazy slippage getting out of the hole. I can almost stop the cavitation with a lot of engine trim. Does anyone have this setup and have the prop selection dialed? I'm not worried about losing top end I just want best economy around 3700.
