    Spare Prop Recommendation For 2018 G2

    Boat: 2018 Ranger 521L, G2 250
    G2 Model: E250LHOAG
    Serial: 05512147
    I just picked up the above and I want to get a spare prop. I'm looking for some experience advice/recommendations for this boat and motor. I would prefer getting something different than what came with motor which is a Raker 14.5 x 26 for no reason other to have something different.
    I will consider a 4 blade prop as well.
    Any help/arguments with recommendations is much appreciated.

    Almost everyone running your engine who is not running the 3 blade Raker H.O. seems to be running the 4 blade Rx4.

    I have an RX4 4 blade prop on my Z522D. I fish in the Great Lakes, and the 4 blade is a great propeller for big water. Evinrude sells it in 26 pitch. If I were you, that is what I would get, especially if you plan on fishing big water.

    Unfortunately our boats are so different, my numbers won't mean much, but I get 63 mph loaded with a 22 pitch RX4 on a 250 HO in the Z522D.

    I have a 521C with a 250HO on the back. I am running a 25" RX4 on the back. I get low 70s with it. And it is really good on big water like Ontario and Champlain. The boat came with a 26" Raker HO on it.

    Why not a 26” or 27” Tempest. You can find them pretty cheap. You can get a G2 hub kit for it

    For a spare I would get a 25 RX4
    I have not ran my new L boat with the G2 but my Z520C was perfect with a Croxton 26 Raker HO
