    which bravo

    Ordered a new 200 pro xs 4 stroke v8
    currently run a regular Optimax 24 trophy mid 60s 5600 rpms.

    if I wanted to buy a bravo which model do I want and any guess on pitch.

    no clue how to prop this motor. I think the small hub trophy wont work well with 4 stroke low end.

    thanks

    The 22P has some cup... The 23 is a 22P with taller cup height. See where the 22P gets you.

    I think I'm gonna go with the LT over the fs..multispecies guys getting better cruise speeds and better topend with added lift of LT.

    my rig is a bow lift slut. loves trim and bow lift.

    LT reduces bow lift because it lifts the stern more.. Good Luck.
