1998 Skeeter ZX195c
1998 Yamaha Vmax 3.1L 200HP with 12" setback Vance Manufacturing Jackplate
Yamaha 25M prop--one trip since it was completely worked, looks like a brand new prop
GPS 66.8 at ~5600 rpms WOT, full trim, and full TX load
Holeshot roughly 10 seconds to plane.
When I bought the boat, the prop was pretty beat up and as it was setup, at 4 5/8" below pad, it would run 69.8 on GPS. I got the prop worked and it looks brand new. I took the boat out today and only got 66.8 GPS out of it. Steering was more stiff than it was before the prop was fixed. No real difference in holeshot. Before the prop work, there was a good bit of chine walk. The fixed prop seems to have helped the chine walk but I lost the speed and rpms.
I know setting the jackplate is a trial and error system but I was hoping some of y'all might be able to help me get to a good starting point.
