As Mark Perry said (also my dealership) trailering all the way down. Mine seems to like it around 12 but adjust depending on chop/waves. Think is also depends how you load your boat. I for one am running 5 batteries and have way too much tackle on it as I leave it at the lake and don't think about hauling what I want every time I go out.
Trailering all the way down. Will slightly vary boat to boat, conditions, and load. Mine likes 6-8 getting on pad and WOT 17-19 at 75% trim 73-74mph all day. By far best Skeeter I’ve owned and ran.
I totally misread this. I was thinking it was for a regular FX. As I am learning my ZXR is a totalky different Skeeter than anything before. Mine seems to run best above 10.

Are you running the stock prop?This
Yes sir
Thank you, looking forward to getting my hands on my FXR 20, ordered this week.
Congrats, your going to love it once you get some seat time and acclimated to the new hull. In my opinion best all around boat out there by far.
i'm coming from a basscat... they like it really low. Is this right to run that high?! that's at and above prop to pad. how do you not sling blades at this height?

Running - 17 is the sweet spot
Trailering - I like it on 2
