    Prop Size

    Just wondering what the guys with 150 ponies are running. I have a Raker 14 1/2X24 but I believe it is reworked down to a 22p.

    2 guys combined about 450 lbs
    tourney load
    full tank

    5600 rpms 56 mph according to the prop slip calculator I'm at about 10% slip

    oh yeah a do have a 6" jackplate as well

    Re: Prop Size (ctepps)

    Most run 23-24p props on your set up. Try a 23 tempest plus if you can.

    Re: Prop Size (21XDC)

    I have a B&B 24 Tempest. I get 66 alone at 5800, but I believe I have more in it.

    You can see boat and motor mod's below. Going to set the engine back a little more and see if I can get some improvement.
