Got the prop today. Thanks. Hope to try it out this weekend. I know you went 83.5 mph with it. I figure since i weigh less than you (and i dont mean my boat) and my motor is bigger i should get at least 86 mph! LOL!! http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/stirthepot.gif http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/stirthepot.gif http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/praying.gif http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/bows.gif
ohh yeah, a little smack talk.. I LIKE IT!! come on TMBULLET.. What you sayy...LOL http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/stirthepot.gif http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/popcorn.gif
http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/Laugh.gif But your wrong... Tom went 84.2 with that prop. http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/wink.gif His 30TXP is on the way and targeting 85+ since he has raised the motor up on the jackplate.
Mike is correct I ran that prop 84.2 at 5700rpm http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/thumbsup2.gif http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/thumbsup2.gif and you gotta watch it Gene my motor runs exceptionally well most others with the rig like mine are not running the numbers I am getting don't really know why but I am running what some of the 250's are running... http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/eek.gif http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/thumbsup2.gif
Kinda makes you wonder if ya don't have mods you don't know about. Mine is a 2002 225EFI and I only hit 75+ with a 28 Bravo 1 at 5700. May be too high or over trimmed, but still......

Don't ever under estimate the power of a modified trolling motor http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/Laugh.gif
Thats what Mike and I wondered but we took of the hood and nothing's been touched, when I got the boat and motor the ecu had 31.4 hours on it and I talked to the original owner and he never touched it. http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/USA1.gif So I attribute it to just a good running motor... http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/thumbsup2.gif
Should be testing the 30 TXP this weekend, weather permitting. http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/cold1.gif
Weather says partly sunny and 50 degrees that won't be to bad, except at mid 80's it might be... http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/Laugh.gif http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/Laugh.gif http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/cold1.gif http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/thumbsup2.gif

Just think of the adenaline rush when you see 85 click by! That will warm you plenty. http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/newyear1.gif
My boat hits 85 I will be sweating , I'm skeptical but we'll see if it hits that speed, wouldn't that be something if it did..... http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/eek.gif http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/eek.gif http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/thumbsup2.gif
Congrats on those great speeds ....I have a 2002 21 XDC with a 2004 250 XS 1:75 TM with 14 inch manual rapidjack.. I have tried lots of props on it.. I got a best of 83.8 light load solo in the spring with a 29 hydromotive q4x-ob... I now have a 28 hydromotive q4x-ob on it for general use that keeps me off the limiter but I have not seen 83 with it yet... These props worked better than all others I tried but I have yet to try any TXPs on it... My boat came with a 2002 250 XB on it with a 26 trophy and it would not break 80 with that setup... You are getting better speeds with that 225 than I get with either of the 250s ... I am not new to high performance ... My brother and I build race engines and exhaust systems for champ 440 snowmobile teams ... We have been world champs in several classes and won the Eastern Pro-Tour Champ 440 championship in 2007 and Eagle River Wis. Vintage IFS 440 world champs in 2006 and 2007.. What I am trying to say is I have race experience and can usually get better than average results... Your results have been better than mine .... http://www.bassboatcentral.com/boardstuff2/beers.gif
