    Raker props

    Is there a difference between a RakerII and a Raker II HO prop other then the vent hole adjustment? I have the vent hole adjusters out of the Raker II HO and it seems to come out of the hole slower then the Raker II that I had The only difference that I can see is the vent holes are smaller on the RakerII HO with the adjusters out then the vent holes on the Raker II

    Prop to pad height also plays a small part in hole shoot. If you're too deep it can hurt hole shot...the HO prop has adjustable vents. I assume you have them open all the way.

    What boat and motor do you have? We could possibly offer better advice if we knew this.

    i have 8 pvs holes in my bravo and run 6 wide open and the other 2 with med openings to find the right amount of venting. so you might need slightly more?
