    2nd Prop for Phoenix 819 w/ 200 Pro XS 2S

    Currently running a Fury 24P and it does fine, planes well and good top end. Would like to try a 4 blade. We do a little skiing and tubing so think a 4 blade would be good. And where to buy? I think someone last time I asked recommended one of the Bravo's.

    Rothwell Marine is great with Merc props, can advise on your setup, is a Phoenix dealer and has a great exchange program and is a BBC Board Sponsor.

    Just some feedback, did get good advice and a great price on a Bravo from Rothwell. Just have to confirm my RPMs and will likely buy one from them.

    If you don't mind me asking, what is your top end speed with your current setup. I just put a 24 fury on my 19ft Stratos/200 Opti ProXS. I can spin the 24 to 5550 rmp - 65 mph. Seems kind of slow in my book.

    My tach is busted and I rarely pull up the VesselView, but if memory is correct, I think I'm between 56 and 5700RPM at close to 70. I have a hydraulic plate too which helps stay in that sweet spot. At less than the max 5750 a 25 Bravo XS was recommended. Said it would run good in the thick summer water but approach the limiter at WOT in winter.
