    What size prop would I need?

    I have a 04 stratos 200XL, yamaha sho 225 I had the ECU reprogrammed to 300 HP with 6500 rev limiter. I am running a turbo FXP 27 pitch with a hydrolic jack plate at wide open throttle it will run 84 MPH GPS but that is at 65000 RPM I am wanting to get the RPM's down to 6000-62000 RPM's. I am thinking 28 or 29 pitched prop what do you all think? I would appreciate your help.

    29 you can always have it worked to a 28 if you lose too many rpms

    I am a bit of a newbie but in reading a lot of posts here and I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong but I think it makes more sense to get a 28 and have it worked to a 29 if needed. It's better to go up in pitch rather than down as you can add more cup and get better grip on the water.

    A prop can be changed one inch in either direction +or- . A change of 1 inch should effect your rpms 200-300. My personal recommendation is to contact:
