prop suggestions 2019 200ss on polarkraft 195tx

[catfishjn69]

guys I am new to the Suzuki thing. had the boat 3 months now kind of shaking things down. have a few questions on props

right now I a running an Suzuki 25p 3 blade at 56 mph and I can hit the rev limiter with 2 big boys in the boat with fully loaded tournament gear. holeshot is great. slip percentage (using 2.5 as gear ratio) is around 8% feel good about that.
thinking I need to go to a 27p prop to bring the rpms down to below 6000
what props will work with the Suzuki and you guys have had good luck with.
anything else I should know or be aware of
thanks

What is your prop diameter? Do you know your L/U ratio?

Revs should be 6000-6100 on that engine if I remember correct. I have the same prop as you if yours is 14.5" diameter and hit 6100 rpm with a DF200A. I have tried a 14.25" 27P 4 blade prop on my Polar Kraft 195 and could only turn it 5700 rpm.

everything I have research says it I a 2.5 ratio being a 2019
prop is a Suzuki water grip 25p I have to assume it is 14.5
the manual says operating range is 5500-6100 right now I think I hit the limiter at 6250
not sure what options are out there

Sounds like you need a 26" prop. Should hit things just right.
