    Prop

    I think I may need to reprop but don't know where to start. I have a 210 with a 300 and it currently has a 27p Tempest with 3 open holes. I am only turning about 5,800-5,900 RPM and at right under 80 MPH. What us some more choices for more speed and RPM.

    Alright GE got you some more info. At WOT if I have the motor 1/2 below and using just trim i can reach about 6100-6200 rpm but if I raise the plate up I start loosing rpm. If I am that close to the max rpm on the 300 should I just rework the prop or get a higher pitch.

    That doesn't sound quite right. If you raise the plate, it should gain rpms.
