So here it is, i've decided to go with a Solas Saturn SS 4 blade prop.
I currently am using standard factory fitted cruise prop Ali 3 blade 15 X 19 on a 275, 5.0 sbc, my boat is a 2150 Ciera 86.
The recommended pitch change is 1 inch when you add a blade, however the next pitch choice down is 2 inches and using previous boat experience thats too big a step for me !
The use improvement is for rough water hold and stern lift and cruise, top speed is not a concern.
What i would like is anyones Saturn experiences regarding pitch changes on these props, especially on similar sized boats.
Don't even mention DP, just not interested !
I will probably have to make a decision quite soon as these appear to have just gone out of production and am tempted to stick with 19 inch pitch !
All the best Joe
