I thought I was done with my prop search. I had decided based on other members on here the FXP was a very good choice. I decided that was the route for me to roll the dice with. Well that's not happening any time soon and sounds like maybe forever... according to Yamaha. So I asked about TXP and they said not soon for that one either, they said the next props we will probably see around are the SHO props and while I don't like the price tag, I would buy one today if there was one around in a 23 pitch. Even with that one, they said its going to be awhile. No idea what they have going on there but it sure is not production...
So with all that said I have had a few dealers tell me the Tempest is a good prop for my boat/motor. I have a X19 with 175 SHO on a 10" jack plate. It came with the PT prop and the boat is squirrely as all get out and I don't like it. It is ok up to about 45 but then just all over the place. I have read through prop forums so much I can't even remember what I have read anymore. So I'm really looking to see outside of the Yamaha props what other props provide good control and decent speed with good boat lift like a FXP specifically on a X19 or maybe X18 as that would be similar control.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Greg
