    1998 Skeeter ZX 200C

    1998 ZX 202 C with 2003 Yamaha 200 HPDI. Running a 25in Yamaha prop--25M--just had prop reworked. Slow to get out of hole. Runs 5800 rpm's and about 60mph on top end. Runs really well except hole shot. Am I gonna need a foil or is it wrong prop.

    Need input.

    Something wrong, bought mine new, had close fishing buddies with two others. The all performed with good to ecellent hole shots and 64-70 mph. Check compression and then prop and engine height. All turned from 5500-6000 if my memory serves me correct.

    This should be a mid to upper sixties rig. I run a 25M or a 26 Tempest on mine.

    Is the prop vented ? I tried a prop without vent holes and it sucked on holeshot. Also a 1998 zx202c.
