This may just confuse thing
This may just confuse thing as our engine is an atypical Yanmar Model:
3JH2-TBE so has a turbo and 47 Hp.
Anyway, these are the specs on our prop and its pitch setting in inches (I
don't know what that translates to in degrees):
Propeller Make: “J” Prop, Marine Propeller s.r.l
Propeller Size:
Double check the size. I think mine is a 16" and I thought it was at 24°.
I also suggest getting a laser tach from Amazon. The Yanmar tachs are
notorious for being about 200 rpm slow. Mine was.
It sounds like you already know that the pitch can only be changed in 2°
increments and for every 2°
Give the people at PYI a shout with all the details: engine, reduction
gearing, and your boat specs. They will be able to get you far closer on
the first try.

Hi Brian- If this helps, the MaxProp on my 34XL (+) is set to 16° according to
the information provided by the PO. I have not checked that myself. The
engine is a Universal M4-30. Dave

I have a 3 blade Max Prop, 17". The surveyor said to adjust propeller pitch
to allow the engine to reach top speed in gear.
The current settings are for 24 degrees.
I think I am supposed to reduce the angle.
I do not know how far off the speed is, so I am thinking of starting at 22.
Anyone else wi
