Got a pix? That "Sounds like" the holes were improperly drilled?

I don't use those any more. Shoving bare wires in a hole with a setscrew is how a lot of people do them. It should have farrels on the wires, but I still don't use them , as the Battery Tender TM plug is superior. I just installed one yesterday.

I would disagree with you... We have been discussing engine height changes here for over a decade. Now I will speak to all boats in general... The manufacture or dealer usually has the engines to low... They don't care that your not getting max performance out of it... They also don't have...

From what you just said.... It changes "Tone" in the when corning. I would say no..... But there are variables... How hard are you turning and how much up trim do you have? Not turning as tight at high speed and or trimming it down in the corners helps to not blow out and stay hooked up...This...

Are you by chance speaking of a Anderson plug? Anything hanging is going to be flopping around....and in a anchor locker is eventually going to be snagged. This is a Anderson plug

Don't know where you got that number? 1in of pitch is usually a "Standard" of 200RPM in figuring. I have seen 150 to 200 RPM in figuring. You have it backwards... You reset the height 1st.... Then the prop change. Doing it as YOU said.... You would do a prop change.... $$$$ ..... Then do a...

There is a problem. You went out of sequenze.... You move the engine 1st.... Then you reprop. Raising the engine will free the boat up... Less drag.... This will also raise the RPM max. That is when you reprop to bring it in spec. From your pix's... it will be one or two holes higher.... You...

Yes... It needs drain holes where they did not put them. On bottom side front & aft of the dimple [lowest point. They also need a hole thru the side of the frame rail so that the inside of crossmemberrs can be flushed easily. Galvanized box tubes rust from the inside out, due to not being...

Wouldn't it be a shame if you bought a tank..... Put it in storage for 4yrs.... Your tank finally springs a leak.... You cut the old one out, only to find the one you bought will not Fit. This is why when you get ready...... You cut the old one out...Take to a fafricator and they build to...

Good.... But I have to question YOUR dealership.... THEY don't know or understand Suzuki's. If they did..... That 15.25 X 19 would have Never been installed.... Sounds like they are a Yamaha dealership that just took on Suzuki's. There is a Difference... as I explained above with gear ratio...

And you went the WRONG way. The 17in pitch will get you on plane Faster than a 19in pitch. You need more test time with THAT prop. It surprises me on your numbers [5950] I would bet the RPM would climb even higher. By the way that is known as a "Square" prop wen Diameter and pitch match...

Your not missing a thing... It's a Piss Poor design. Maybe ....... Maybe Not ...... Need good pix's. Is the trailer galv. or alum ? Is the trailer boxed tubing or I beam ? Need pix's of the ends where crossmembers connect main rails and the centers of the crossmembers.... COMPLETE...

Standard...Go To Prop is. 3 X 16 X 17 and has been posted to use that a LOT. The Standard is.... for every 1in of pitch change your RPM will change by 200RPM. So......With your numbers 3X16X19 @ 5500.. You should see a increase of 400RPM to make your engine hit 5900 which puts it right in the...

Past information has been a LOT of problems with self deploy.... I've never installed one and steer people away from them. Nothing like a half deployed TM that is stuck. THEN what do you do? You will need to build a alum plate to affix the quick release mount to. This will cantilever over the...

This is a Plate....... Refereed to as a "JACK plate. This is a Engine Bracket [Not refereed to as a plate] They are typically built out of alum... Some are Fiberglass. Parker used a company called "Stainless Marine" to supply them...But they are NOT stainless...They are alum. Latter on...

Hands Down! Suzuki DF300AP This is the one with Fly by wire. You do NOT want the Dual Prop one...They have Bugs. It will bring a Smile to your face the 1st time your able to run it after break in. In fact before that due to being Extra - Extra quiet. You will want a Suzuki 3 X 16 X 17 Prop.

I am Not sure..... BUT.... If it has a 30in shaft where there should be a 25..... It will never be efficient. You will always have extra drag.

You START with the Obvious.... Condition of Batteries is ALWAYS #1. :)

Thats Not good that you are unsure.... That is also a touch low in RPM. I found one in alum. https://www.boats.net/product/yamaha/6G5-45941-00-00 Wondering how low / which holes the engine is mounted in?

I had to come read this to find out what in the Hell a "Running Board" is on a 18ft Parker. LOL How about.... "Console Foot Prop" :)
