[QUOTE="dennishoddy, post: 3026799, member: 5412"] That is true. A lower pitch prop will get you out of the water and on plane a lot quicker, but the top speed will suffer. The prop is vulcanized to the hub.(think glued) if it gets in too much contact with mud, trees or rocks, the prop breaks that "glue" and the prop will spin on the hub. Weight on the boat will have nothing to do with it. (simplified version) It's either "glued" or not, not a slip joint. The hub then needs to be replaced with another one and you're good to go.
