After trying many props Powertech (Various) Yamaha (VMAX SHO Ventless) on my Yamaha SHO 175 I finally was able to get the best combo for hole shot and top end, thanks to Croxton's tuning. Here is my...

What Highlander said is spot on!

I suggest running what you have at first before you buy a prop, if you have PVS type plugs on your props pick yourself up some PVS plugs to cover the holes, that way you can experiment with closed...

Same here, some props especially heavier props give more vibration than others, the worst offenders were larger diameter 4 blades, quietest prop by far with little vibration were 3 blade Yamaha...

Finally made it to twenty hours and ready from my first service and the oil level has not moved prior to service! My dealer said not to worry about doing it at ten hours and just to follow the...

Taken into account with what Mike said about the gears being 2.0 instead of 1.86, you may have to jump up to a 23" pitch since the Pro Series is odd pitched numbers.

I agree if you run 2.0 gear instead of the 1.86 which I thought the F150 had, than you should jump up in pitch from what I ran. I have 1.86 gears on the 175 SHO, which is basically a F175-F200, kind...

I ran 2 four blades the TRO4 and a Raker 4, the first TRO4 wasn't vented and it was awful out of the hole and would barely hit 5800 and I had a 21" TRO4 that was vented and was decent out of the hole...

I feel our pain, the F150 being a four stroke with 1.86 is going to be a DOG and I mean a DOG out of the hole with your setup, I have a Ranger 185VS Intracoastal that I recently re-powered with a...

I use a spray bottle of CLR Bath and Kitchen Cleaner and spray area let sit for a little (3 minutes) and then wipe with a CLR soaked microfiber cloth, rinse, wipe dry, and finish off with bass boat...

I sent my old TRO4 back to Powertech and guess what? It was not a 24" pitch it was a 21" pitch when they measured it even though it was stamped 24" on barrel! That explains why it seemed better out...

I ran a Powertech TRO4 on similar setup in a 24" was able to run 60 light load with a Ranger 185VS, and 57 full load, your Skeeter is lighter than my 1520lb Ranger Hull so add 2 MPH for a top end of...

I have a Ranger Intracoastal 185VS, not sure if the hull is exactly the same, but my favorite prop for my old engine using a150 VMAX Yamaha w/2.0 gears was a Powertech TRO4, my engine/boat combo with...

Bub Tush makes an awesome punching rod with moderate action and its relatively inexpensive. I have the Dobyn's 795 Champion extreme and like the Bub Tush iRod better, go figure,

Blew my cylinder and going to re-power. I ran various props with my rig Ranger 185VS Intracoastal and 150 VMAX Carbed and Powertech TRO4s 24" worked by Croxton gave me my best numbers!

I am also joining the break-in club also! My 2003 150 Yamaha VMax's carb took a dump and ruined #3 cylinder, so instead of rebuilding power head since I had crankshaft damaging/heating, I decided...
