I would be comfortable with the 52. The 52 inch Fortrex on my Z7 stays underwater on Lake Ontario and the St Lawrence in waves that I can barely stand.

Has anyone experience a section of a Slidemaster 8" jackplate washer (4 black colored, full-length washers with 4 bolts that hold in place both the fixed plate and adjustable plate) crack and break...
If it was an impact at speed, check the corners of your motor well for cracks, no matter how slight. Had a Skeeter that struck a log at 60+ back in '89; no problem with engine but it yanked the...
If you live close to a landfill or other commercial scale, you can likely just drive onto the scale stopping the tow vehicle OFF the scale, extend the jack down to remove tongue weight from the tow...
My 2011 has 6 bunks, 2 that are over 8 ft long adjacent to the pad, and a 5 1/2 footer farther outboard from those. I would also say that with the hook these Z7's seem prone to; be sure the rear...
Reminiscing here...BASSmaster magazine had a page showing Ray Scott displaying a 15 ft boat with a 90 Merc that clearly had Hydra Sport "lines" but sold under some B.A.S.S. affiliated name. Only...
I can't tell from the photos if you have a straight 4 plug coming off the trailer, or a straight 5 like I have. I obtained a round 7 to flat 5 plug for mine. The fifth connector automatically...
Sometimes trailering in the draft of another vehicle causes "jolting" turbulence in multiple directions that is more damaging than straight, smooth wind. Cover all sharp points with slit tennis balls...
Okay, thanks a bunch. My main concern was the extra weight on the transom with the 200 repower from my 150 Opti, plus the poles. Back when I started in the late 70's everybody had transoms cracking,...
I'd like to mount a pair of 10 ft Power Poles on my 8" Slidemaster on my 2011 Z7 (which is rated for a 200) and repower with a 200 4 stroke so it's not a dog. Anyone have a bad experience with this...
You would have to ask someone else for that answer. I've only read numerous times how "the engine sounds great", and everything else was checked out (as you seem to have thoroughly done); then I read...
[No, what I meant to convey is that my 24 can only turn a max of 5400 before I raise it too high to have adequate water pressure. I've never been able to come close to 5700 with my 24P. Most of the...
I've heard that a coil not firing will affect performance while the engine still sounds great. I never had that issue directly but I've repeatedly read about surprised owners finding this problem.
The 21P prop seems a bit short for that setup. BPS sold those boats back then with the 24P, and you'll never get 5700 with that prop and still have good water pressure. Most guys I know swapped the...
My 2011 150 Opti Pro xs on Z7 is turning 5400 at 61 mph 3.25 below pad with the tempest plus 24. Are all cylinders firing?
