    javelin 400tdc set up

    just curious what everyone is running for a prop, i need a new prop and cant decide what to try, was running a turbo lightning 24p and thinking of a 25p tempest plus. i have tried a 25p fury and it slipped like crazy but once i was up on pad it went good, any input would be great, thought mabye someone with a similar boat might know what works well

    What motor you running, I like a 25 Tempest or Trophy on my later model rig.

    I've got a 4 blade Ballistic 25" on my Single console, no jack plate, 200XP. Prop is pretty beatup. Runs 60 mph.

    I have a 400 TDC with a Mercury Optimax 225 and have been running 25p tempest plus for 8 years. Just recently added a 8 inch atlas jack-plate and it will run 68-71 mph. Tried 25p fury and lost speed.

    when i bought the boat it had a 24p turbo with no jackplate, and was getting 60mph and rpms were pretty good at wot, i had the prop fixed and a cup added, put a jackplate on it and got it up to 63-64mph, then the second time i used it after i got it set up i screwed the prop up loading the boat unfortunatly. so i have been told the tempest is the way to go for the heavier boat. i appreciate all the info

    When you switch to the Merc prop use the Michigan Wheel hub kit # 200. It far better than the Merc hub kit.

    Designed differently so it won't crush like the Merc one does which causes issues.
