Look close at Simrad. There a good reliable unit that will do everything you need it to on your boat Dion.
I'm not a dealer nor do I represent there company. Just know what I have seen with the unit's I have installed. Good unit all the way around.

Is there is any interest in 8# 10# and 15# round, or 12# torpedoes. Pricing will be reasonable, but I want to find out the interest before we pour allot of them.
John R: I know the boat your powering well and your weight estimate is real close.
IF That drive is the original for that engine it is a 1:50 ratio and a 15x16 or 15 1/4X15c should put you in the ball park. But unless it was a very light boat a 26 pitch prop would indicate that it might not be the ratio you think it is. There's only one way to know for certain what you have and that' to pull the top cover (4- 3/8's 12 point bolts) and count the teeth on gears. You'll want to know what your working with before ya start spending $$ on props. Any problems or questions pm your # and I'll give a call.
