Anyone have this rig with a 225 Pro XS? 10" set-back... Looking for a starting point for PTP, prop, pitch and what kind of numbers I should expect.
Thanks, Mike

25 Tempest 2” below will get you 70. Worked 26 Tempest 70+.

What lower unit do you have?

Gen1 or Gen2 Torquemaster?
my bad...it's a gen 1, the motor is a 2006 225 pro xs with original lower unit
I would set it for 2.5", a long as you have at least 15 PSI water pressure at WOT.
Thanks guys, I'll be starting the set-up this week and if anyone is running a 4 blade with good numbers let me know.
1999 TR-21 250 HP 27P Bravo1 over 80 MPH......you wont run that speed though.
Not with a 225....I can't believe it's rated for just 245
Yeah. I know

I hit 74 even with the 10" set-back and my partner's worked 26 Tempest loaded to fish with just me, 30 minutes later the lower unit went. Boat is down for a couple of weeks.
Forgot to say— With a 25P Out of the box Trophy 71 - 72 mph 5900 - 6000 rpm. But. My average 2 way pass is 45.735 mph. Hope you get the boat back in the water soon.
