    H18 f150 setup help

    Long time reader first time posting I have a 2017 H18 with 1 talon Yamaha F150 6” manual jack plate 23 pitch power tech prop 4.25 prop to pad about 6100 WOT rpm by myself empty livewell half tank of gas & my normal tackle I’m getting about 58 mph top end from reading the boards I need to start with a new prop but I’m trying to buy once cry once mercury & Yamaha prop calculators have given me different suggestions from 23 pitch to 26 pitch I’m trying to find the right used prop I’m not against more set back but it already sits really low in the water or a hydraulic jack plate. I want the best top end but don’t want a miserable hole shot with a partner & a full livewell I’ve always been about top speed but honestly I think what I’m looking for is something I can comfortably cruise in the mid 50s, in a perfect world I would love to cruise low to mid 50s without being WOT run mid 60s solo & half a tank of fuel, & run high 50s with a partner & a full tournament load if that’s possible. Hopefully some of the Xpress pros will chime in. I’m open to any suggestions but I like to buy used because I’m cheap.
