will put a speck on shaft to determine rpm
If range is close to 1000 to 1800 on the speed control will check in water for speed and thrust with GPS and scale.
Had good practical experience /test with my 8 ft dinghy 15 hp cavitation = top speed 8 k
9.9 hp 20 plus k with even ride thur power curve.
15 hp works great on outboard motor mount on stern of boat 3/4 k
Main concern is waves over stern drowning out engine,
have 20 gallon racing fuel cell and 4 gallon outboard tank which works on dinghy and shockwave
.will probably use my 70 lbs trust mini kota on dinghy as a back-up for docking = works great with 3 or more in boat.

Kudos to you Capt Bob.
Sounds like a nice project. Please keep us posted. This site has been way too quiet lately.
Have you tried Minney's Yacht Surplus in Costa Mesa, CA for shafts and props? I was last there about a year and a half ago and bought props for my Albin 25 my Duffy 15, plus a couple others for some of my brother's projects. Didn't find any shafts that I could use, but they have 100s of used props, and some new ones. Have you figured out what size/pitch you need yet?
