pulling this thread back up as i bought another prop...26p trophy (the original not trophy 2) this time it cost me a whopping $125. this has been the best prop by far i've tried. very fast holeshot,...
just got the plugs changed. thinking that could have been the problem. according to everything i can find, the correct gap for the ngk izfr5g is .31-33. the autolites i pulled out were gapped...
well i ran into a deal i couldn't pass up. turbo 2+2 ot 26 pitch with merc hub for $100 in perfect condition. have no idea if it will be better or worse, but now i have a backup. it certainly has...
maybe the holeshot is something i will just have to deal with, but the rpms isn't. what is your ptp with the trophy? it's probably the closest prop to my predator. what is your rpms?

took it out today. livewells empty it wasn't terrible on holeshot but certainly not great. filled them and man it really sucked. 30+ seconds maybe longer. stuck at 3800-3900 rpm for an eternity. ...
Good info so far. Another thing I noticed last night was the prop has all 4 vent plugs out so I think I will start with messing around with those. Man, the weekend can't get here fast enough!
thank you for the reply. most of our moving from spot to spot isn't far often less than a 1/4 of a mile so hole shot is pretty important to me. should i add smart tabs (think they are called mobster...
Hi new to the forum. I just bought a new triton tr20 with a 225 mercury optimax. Has a small jack plate (assume 6") and a predator prop of unknown pitch 4 blade. I haven't had a chance to get it...
