    non-cavitation measurement

    Since we are now in an era of new outboards
    and modified ob wells -
    perhaps a better determination of optimum prop depth
    would be from the waterline on the Ariel
    or Commander
    to the center of the prop.

    Thus, 'the center of my prop is 6" below the designed waterline on my Ariel
    and it doesn't cavitate in a chinese chop.'

    338's high thrust Yamaha 4/8
    is 16" below the D,W,L,... and it doesn't cabitate neither,
    but it's not in the water
    yet.
