Just an update...prop change made huge difference. Solas 23 pitch, 4-blade. It's perfect now. Was on Lake St. Clair over the weekend. Normal pleasure boat chop and was able to control the bow with...
Thanks — I agree the 27 is too much, that’s why I’m inquiring about the 23 or 24. With the way this boat is used it’s a little different set of needs maybe. As I mentioned, I’m not opposed to having...
Hey guys -- I've held off posting this question hoping I could find the answer with some research, reading other posts, etc. But I'm just confusing myself more and more.
This is the ZX225 I posted...
Hey guys -- Just an update. Dropped to 3.25 inches below pad and put the 3-blade, 27-M back on. Finally got to the lake this morning. Hit the throttle, shot out of the hole in no time and zero...

I’ve always ran one on the Great Lakes per the advice of guys who fish the often...I honestly have no other reasoning
Update on this: measured and looks like center of prop shaft is 1.25 inches below pad. 3 blade prop is 14 1/2x27-M. I’m thinking I’ll drop the jack plate 1” and try the 4 blade and see what results...
Hey fellas — I’ve been a silent observer of the board for some time and you’ve all helped me solve a number of issues with my old boat. I have a new-to-me Skeeter ZX225 with VMax 225. My first outing...
