ZX185c Which prop 23M or 25M ?
Hello
I have a 99 ZX185C with a Vmax 150 and I have a 23M and I am debating on switching to a 25M. I have had several people tell me I needed a 25m because their boat ran better but two different prop shops said a 23m was correct so now I am confused. lol If you have a ZX 185 could you please post your numbers and what prop you have ? Mine started out as a Twin Prop motor and someone has since switched the lower unit to a single prop if that matters. I had a guy tell me he bought his new off of the showroom floor and it had a 25M.
Thank You

I have a 1997 ZX185C and run a 25. Highest # is 62 GPS.

Did you ever have a 23 or have you always had a 25 ?

2000 zx185 yami ox66 150, ran 62mph @ 5500 rpms with a 25m.
question for you OP is what are your rpms?

You could turn a 25, whats your speed and do you want to go faster or what exactly?
-
My speed is currently 55-56 and yes I am wanting to go faster. Granted I know my jackplate needs adjusted its just been too cold here to do that. Lol

From what I have read it has a 2.0 gear ratio. I have been told I have alot of prop slip so I need to make a decision to either have the 23M reworked or trade it in and get a 25M the shop said it was approximately the same price either way what would you do?

It can be worked for less than a new prop and if your buying a used 25M it might need work too.
