[Rhodes22-list] High-thrust or prop choice?

[Michael D. Weisner]

Has anyone looked into the Rice Nozzle?  I remember the discussion in Feb 
about the Kort Nozzle 
(http://www.nabble.com/Kort-Nozzle-to15315624.html#a15331135)

Are these alternatives to "high thrust" models, especially for those of us 
that do not wish to buy a new engine, yet.  Has anyone experimented with 
prop sizes and pitches?

BTW, the local CraigsList is full of interesting boats and marine engines 
for sale (some are just take-aways.)  People are getting crazy about gas 
consuming devices.
