ZX 200 prop advice

[196 Bobby]

Running a 24 T1. Not getting enough rpms. Closest dealer has Merc props. What’s a good option? Thanks in advance. 200 SHO

Will give it a shot. Thank you

23 scorpion prop runs well on my 200 that is another option

What are your rpm's with the scorpion

This is my reply to another post in the "Yamaha" section if it helps you...Same motor, but older hull...Honest numbers: With 22" Razor 4 prop, I get 68mph at 6000rpm. With 24" FXP, I get 71mph at 5900rpm (a 23" FXP would be better setup). Both props at 2"ptp and just myself in boat, no talons, 15-20 gallons gas, 2 lithium trolling batteries.
By the way...the Razor 4 prop really "livened" up this boat, making it way more fun to drive...Although I lose a few mph from 3 blade, it's a better hole shot and does get to top end much quicker than the FXP.

I'm getting 5600 rpms with a similar setup. Is it realistic to expect a 6 mph increase in speed by dropping pitch in prop and getting to 6000 rpm? Probably not

[196 Bobby]

So y’all think that 400 rpms will make a lot of difference ?

My ZX200 with an HPDI runs 60-61 at 5000 rpm and 65-66 at 5500, so yes, 400 rpm could add 4-5 mph.
