Ken Smith's video: Improving Boat Fuel Economy with Different Prop or Pitch Find the Sweet Spot to Improve MPG 30

This is an experiment where I tried to see which prop was the most fuel efficient, improving boat fuel economy the most. We tried a 3 and 4 blade prop in a couple of different pitches. Motor today is a Mercury 4 stroke 250 Pro XS pushing a Bass Cat Lynx. We also discovered there are "sweet spots" on these props where you can improve MPG as much as 30% with just tiny changes to your speed.
