    Hi, It's not my engine (I have a JP2 - check my other videos), but Archimedes has a 24 x 24 prop on her. She is nicely prop'd but suffers from prop walk (paddle wheel effect) - always a problem with "square" props.
    I notice your mate doesn't have any more room to swing a bigger prop, but if I were him (and he wants to spend the money), talk to Crowther Marine in Oldham who will calculate the best prop for the available size - probably a "high efficiency" (large blade area) one.

    Never start her up like that - start her on tickover - no oil pressure and bad for the engine
