    201 xl w/ 300 Yammie...prop recommendations?

    Just bought an '06 201XL...LOVE IT!! It has the 300 hp Yammie and the 27p Yamaha Vmax prop. Has anyone w/ a similar set-up found better prop options?

    Is that boat rated for a 300?

    Think '06 was the last year with the special Decal allowing that monster.

    29 T-1 works well for us.

    From what I have read yes but the Evo seems to be built on a new platform. Don't think its fair to compare the two

    Re: 201 xl w/ 300 Yammie...prop recommendations? (Hydrilla)

    The stock 300 is only 2 mph or so faster than the 250. It takes the Hydro Tec treatment to bring it to life.

    Also, we're comparing the old 201 to the new Evo.......the Evo is a tad faster and bigger than the old 201 classic.

    Which phase kit would give me the most bang for the buck, I or II? The phase III is a bit expensive.

    2 on a budget. We do a lot of 1 1/2's......the Stratos' don't need the solid mounts.
