To my understanding the only "cavitation" that happens is when the propeller gets pitted. The rest is ventilation. Propeller slips and the engine screams? = Ventilation. Exhaust over the propeller? = Also ventilation. Pretty much whenever someone says cavitation they are talking about ventilation

Once again, a ton of good information. Going check out the slip calculator to see where mine is at. Thank you for putting this out so everyone can better understand what we are talking about and what to look for when deciding on a new prop.

It's a "traditional configuration Cessna" (with the first obvious characteristic being the wing above the fuselage) single engine aircraft.

Great info Ken..........It really helps to gain a basic understanding of the principles about how this all works....... It makes it much easier to know how to affect the changes we are looking for tho make our boats efficient and operate at peak performance....... Thank you for going down these rabbit holes.... :) Really appreciate your content......... One of my favaorite KZitem channels to find quality information......

Better description, as the car/truck gains speed in a given gear, the motor gains efficiency. This efficiency results in burning less fuel or in boating terms, the speed increases as a result of reduction in slip as it becomes more efficient. Slip will vary depending on conditions associated with the hydrodynamics of the boats hull traveling over the water. Maybe this is not any cleaner. Bottom line is, slip is a variable not a fixed figure.

loving learning about props, in the future is it possible to do a video on the power poles vs. the minnkota raptors? im thinking about getting one of them but im not sure what will be better.

Briar, I know a little bit but yes I'll try to review them. The Raptors are extremely quiet, have't tried the newest PP's but will soon, I've heard from a service center that they are having some programing issues with the Raptors but that they will have it worked out really soon

I know you're in Texas, but that shiny thing you put at the bottom of your outboard is a propeller, NOT a "propellor" as indicated in one of the slides. In Texas, it seems popular to haul your propellor on your trailor!
