    Prop Question

    2000 202 Champion
    2018 Mercury 200
    Temptest 23p

    I was running only 58-59mph @ 5800RPM
    Lowered the motor and gain 61mph @5800

    Should I get a bigger pitch 24? Seems I should be getting more out of the boat?

    Thanks

    25P Tempest is the wheel for that set up.

    Unless the tach is wrong, I can’t see him spinning a 25, RPM’s would be around 5200-5300.
