Question about a 4 blade prop on a ZX200 Skeeter
Been running a Temptest 25p 3 blade prop on my 2008 ZX200 Skeeter with a 200 HPDI. 63mph @ 5600. PTP is 3.50", 40 gallons of gas, both livewells full, and 2 people. <br><br>Tried a Fury 24p 4 blade prop with all 8 holes open, boat was sluggish on takeoff and hard to steer. Moved prop to 3.25", put 2 solid plugs and 2 large plugs in the prop. Boat falls off pad in turns and stiff steering still. Having to get the boat moving to get up on pad around 3500 rpm's and porpoises alot in mid range rpm's. Water pressure is around 25 psi.<br><br>Any thoughts on what I need to do to help free up steering and keep boat on pad.

Two issues I think, a loss of power and probably motor to high, Fury needs to run 1/2 in deeper than the tempest, unless it has been reworked properly
