    Any idea on 'Elephant Ear' propellers for Alpha 1 and what size it should be...

    Hi, I totally agree with your facts on the design and dynamics of this boat coming from its very nature unfortunatelly. The only pro is; it has one of the greatest interior space for a boat at its size: 24.5 feet only! Well, what I try to know is; if there could be a prop that can achieve better...

    Alpha Sterndrive; engine stalls when shifting to neutral !!

    When mooring this is a pretty nasty situation. Impact can be inevitable if I can’t restart the engine and reverse fast enough. 😱😱😱 I’ve changed the throttle cables and idle air control valve with new OEM parts but the problem still continues. When the gear is shifted from forward or reverse...
