Prop Question?

[Geoffrey18]

I am currently running the 13x17.5x1 1/8 on my 06 Outback V. This weekend when we were riding and I had all three bags full it seemed to be dragging out of the hole. Would a diff. prop fix this? I have a OJ 13x14x1 1/8 but I am thinking its to low of a picth for my boat. Any input would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

I have a Mobius LS which I believe is the exact same hull as the Outback V. I'm running an OJ 13x13 repitched to 13x12. I'd look at having your 13x14 repitched to 13x13 or 13x12. Any local prop shop shold do it for about $75. I get a much better holeshot skiing and it does as good as you would expect when heavily weighted. Hope this helps...

ps - Just curious, anyone know why the Outback V comes with a different sized prop than the Mobius LS if they have the same hull, motor, etc?

The outback V is NOT the same as the 06 and newer L series. It is the same hull as the 04-05 L series. Also direct drive vs V-Drive may be a slight difference, and there is a wakeboard prop as well (possibly a high altitude one if not the same as well)

I should have been more specific...I have an '04 Mobius LS so the same hull as you have
