elvinchi,
Welcome to the site....before you buy, if possible (not sure about availability or how you are buying this boat) you need to get the propellers matched.

For the engines to work together to give you the best performance, both props need to be the same diameter and pitch. Otherwise, the engines will be constantly fighting eachother and almost impossible to run in sync.

If you do buy this boat, look into it as you first thing to do.

T380fisher,
thank you very much for that information, that is the fist thing i am going to do. The thing is that i would like to know what is the best prop for this ship so i could get them.
The other thing that i was thinking on doing was put the two props on the same diameter and picht lets say 20x22
