    This is what concerns me, that’s a really low pitch prop. Not sure of your friends set up or details but if it’s a similar boat to me, I would wonder why this engine has no top end

    DaveTTN on here is running a worked Tempest Plus on his 18 TRX with 200 Merc 4 stroke. He has reached 72 solo so you might want to read some of his posts or pm him for his exact setup. If I remember correctly he turned it 6090 RPMs.

    Based on his results I bought a Tempest Plus 22P as a spare but have not ran it yet.

    1Holeshot, I noticed that you are running a 24 Bravo 1FS on your Triton 18 TRX. What is your top speed and Rpm with that Prop?

    With the Bravo 24 I can get 70 solo with 1/2 tank of fuel right at 6000 RPMs PTP 2 3/4" below pad. With 2 onboard 68.5.

    I owe Triton TRXV8 (Roy ) for doing the research for this setup. He must have ran 4 or 5 props before settling on the Bravo 24 FS.

    I had the good fortune of trading my Fury 23 for the Bravo in like new condition in an even swap.

    If you decide on a new prop PM me for contact on best price.

    Do you know what kind of speed your friend is seeing with that prop at 6100 rpms? What kind of boat is it?
