CV16SS Volvo Penta Prop recommendations?
« on: October 02, 2024, 03:18:38 PM »
My 72' CV16SS is powered with the Volvo Penta AQ130/ AQ270 drive setup. I see plenty of info on the Mercruiser regarding prop size/pitch but not much with the Penta aside from the OEM 15x17 recommendation.

what props are you all running for this setup? i currently have a 14x19 (aluminum) that was installed when i purchased it recently

Prop selection wasn't as good for the Volvo's
I don't think they came with tilt & trim .. maybe an option ?
