    Keep going slow and steady and when you think you've got it mastered then get suggestions.

    Would shorten the learning curve if you had an experienced driver with you.

    I have the same rig, 1995 with a 200 efi merc, any questions on yours ask away.I just switched lowers to a cle and have only ran a 27 trophy and it runs 83+ mph solo with fishing gear. I never ran this prop with the coned 200 and cone torquemaster I had though and I expect it may have been a touch faster with those lowers. Myself I like running over hub props and a hoss hyperdrive in 3 or 4 blade are sweet handling props. The trophy drives pretty good too all around.
