Ranger 620VS/Optimax 225 DFI - Rev 4 21P???

[darleyhavidson]

I have an '02 Ranger 620 with an Optimax 225 (DFI). I am looking for a 4 blade prop for better boat control without losing a ton of RPM or top speed.

Will a Rev 4 21P be suitable? Most folks recommend a Rev 4 19P.

Thoughts?

a 19 should be what you want.. revs are very stiff props. if you can get near max rpm out a 19 u will be like 54 -55 mph. I think usualy 3 blades run mid 50s with a 225 on that hull?? so rev4 will drop a few mph when running light.
u wanna run all holes open on rev4 with that opti.

Thanks for the feedback. I was looking at a Mercury prop guide and my boat/motor fell in between the 19P Rev 4 and 21P Rev 4 parameters. Looks like I need to find a good deal on a 19P.

Thanks again.
