    Need advice on setting up a 2002 Nitro CDX SC with Mecrury 225 Optimax.

    Right now I'm running a 25p Tempest, I just bought the boat at the end of May. What should be my prop to pad height? What pitch and brand should I go with to get the most out of this boat.

    I Have a 2006 929cdx DC , Merc 225 Opti, 10: jack plate, 3" PPH and a 25 Tempest Plus. Full of fuel cool morning 64mph at 1500 ft. elevation at 5600 rpm. I do feel I need to go to a 24p to get the proper max RPM's 5750
