I just purchased a Ranger 518VX with a 2020 200ss on it. The boat currently has a 24" dia 21 pitch 4 blade on it which is under pitched as the motor hits the rev limit with it. The previous owner told me he borrowed a 23P Tempest from a friend and tested it on the boat and it would hit 62 to 63 mph with that prop but still hit the rev limiter if you stayed on the pedal long enough. He thought a 24P would be about right for it.
I figured before I go drop a bunch of cash on a new prop, I'd ask around here and see if anyone had any input on it. Props aren't cheap and I only want to buy one. Thanks in advance.
