 |
|
Has anyone had this issue before….. looking for some input.
I have a Ski Brendella and replaced the following.
Shaft.
Balanced the Prop.
Had the Strut looked at.
Had it aligned, spec is .001
its getting better and better each time it gets worked on, there isn’t anything left to do, but still vibrates.
The vibration starts around 34mph on up.
If anyone has been through this before, your input would help… |

It could be that your boat just has a natural harmonic. Does it do it a certain RPM or at 34 MPH and up.

not sure about RPM's, i was thinking about going to the 4 blade prop, but not really too excited about spending 400 to see if that helps, i heard that 3 blade props generate vibration more than 4 blades....  |

find a prop to just try, anything that fits and is close in size that is in good shape before buying another
