    What info do I need for you guys to tell me if I will need a different prop?

    Boat 2004 521vx
    motor yammy hpdi 250
    current prop Yamaha T1 25
    15 1/8

    i don’t have all that much in the boat. I’m thinking of adding two 10 ft talons.

    Do you guys think ill need a different prop?

    I don’t have a backup prop now so I need a recommendation?

    what rpm numbers do i need to write down to be more helpful.



    Thanks guys!
