What's the best prop for top end speed on this set up?
What's the best prop for top end speed on this set up?
26 FXP if you got a manual plate.
It would be really hard to tell though, depending on how your setup is. Generally whichever prop you can spin at 6k will be fastest. I have run 6 different props on mine, and no matter which pitch or work, the one nearest to 6K plus rpms was fastest.
I've had the best luck out a yamaha 25p t1 but spun the hub. Tried a 25p fxp last week could turn 6,000rpms with two people but only got 68mph on the gps, about 4 mph slower than the t1 was
25 T1 is really hard to beat as an overall prop on that boat.

The 25 T1 is obsolete at Boats.net etc

That is the vented version, which have begun to fade out due to Yamaha having all 4 strokes.
Interesting....hope Randy nailed it...Croxton sent the 26 FXP prop yesterday...so only 2 to test...and let it be if as near 6k as I can get WOT.
I am not one to over-mess with my setup...cruising at 68-70gps all day full load will get me there...new ZX225 due next week.
Cruising with 5 fatso bass in the well is more important than straining for 74mph or whatever the fantasy number is these days...
rock on!
