Do you guys run the same pitch prop that you would at the beginning of season vs when it’s 115 degrees out?

I’ve never changed props due to temp. Summer, winter.... all the same. One less thing to mess with.

Yes, its a game day decision depending on temperature and passengers, in december or so I can swing a larger prop then in July, I have three sets, keep a cordless impact on a table behind the boat and make a swap depending on the above, maybe 5 minutes max. If I have 6 people in the boat or if its just me then I will make a change as well.

I've had the same prop on my boat for 8 years...took it off a few times to try different ones that sucked, and to change the propshaft seals once.

I always prop my boats conservatively (who really spends that much time WOT?). So yes I do
