Bravo1 xs on a z9

[flipNfrog]

I'm trying to get the right pitch the first time. I've got a 2013 z9 with 250proxs. Loaded up with 2 power poles , 36v ultrex, 3 graphs and more tackle than I need what pitch should I look into from what I've read it sounds like a 26p?

You must be reading a wishful thinking book if you think a 26 is right. 24 would be more where you need to be.

I had a 2013 z-8 250 pro xs , I ran a 27 bravo 1 xs.

*(26)*That is close for that heavy of a boat a little help like current prop and RPM

[hermanp]

K have same boat equip.etc.I run a 24 fury 3 about 5800 rpm and 64 mph full tank of gas and well full drops it a lot

I had a 27P Bravo XS on a Z8/250. You can run a 26P I would think. This setup is made to run high.

I would further say that the life of that prop running high is about 2 years. The constant loading and unloading the blades will eventually cause you to throw a blade.

I'm running the exact same setup as you and was wondering the same thing. I currently run a 25P Tempest Plus, with a partner I can only run 54mph at around 5000RPM with no bow lift. Hoping I can get more lift out of a Bravo.

A 25 tempest on a 19 foot boat should get with it at least 5800 RPMs with load
