anyone running a 15.75" prop on their alpha 1? pretty sure mine called for a 16x16 originally but it had a 14.75x17 on it. bought a solas 15.8"x15. also bought new anodes. well the prop hits the new anode. even without the anode there is only about 1/4" clearance to the cavitation plate so not sure a 16" could even work on there? I have about 1/4" clearance with the 15.8" on there. my plan is to just cut the fin off the anode to make it a flat anode. my boat has power steering so from what i read i don't need the fin anyway.
