Getting near the end of the season but just couldn't resist a quick rig and test of my new (to me) 2010 Aquarius
Stock Merc 60 short shaft with trim
Lee's old Mertens prop wasn't available, in the shop so had to run a stock Merc 15" round ear 3 blade.
Prop was good with 2 on board but blew out at speed with one.
Great fun though.
As you can see we were rewarded with great weather, great way to end the season.
Winter plans include better transom spacers, battery mount for the Odyssey and steering torque/damping.
Then... We rig the second boat
If one is Fun, two is More Fun
