818 performance

[Phoenix 5]

What kind of speed and range or guys get out of pro 818 with 175 pro xs four stroke? Also best prop for top and over all performance.

I have a 618 with the 175 4 stroke. Other than a slightly wider front deck, the 818 is the same. I have a 24p prop and run 67 mph, by myself, loaded. Me and a partner, 64 mph. I run a 24p in cooler months and a 23p in warmer months. By myself with the 23p, 65 mph is about top speed.

Which prop models are these and do you know the RPMs at those speeds?

Both props are Tempest plus. With the 24p 5600 rpm, 23p is 5800-5900 rpm

Loaded ‘21 818 with Merc 175, 23P tempest manual Jackplate. With lead acid batteries and dual power poles hole shot was a little slow and top end was 61-64mph. Pre poles, great hole shot and top out at 65mph. Just switched to lithiums and dropped almost 100lbs. Hopefully that will get me back to pre poles speeds.

I love this boat but really wish they offered the 818 with a 200 Merc!

I wish they would also like the triton and ranger. I would be all over that.
