Tried adding 2" spacers and the hotfoot. Spacers seemed to help a bit. Might still have to work on a 10" plate. Still need to try a 25" 4 blade prop. Still running 6400 Rpm with the scorpion 23" three blade... 4" PTP, 57 mph.

Just getting this boat setup and trying to determine best motor height for planing and speed. (considering 2nd hole from top). Will be running this boat in a river and need to be able to make sharp turns on plane.
I have some questions about setup. Where and how can I post them here?
I have a 2015 XP200 w/Yamaha 115. Came stock with a Jack Plate and Power Tech Stainless. 2 1/2 inches below... Only seeing 38 gps @ 5600 rpms on a good day. Was expecting low to mid 40s at least. Any prop suggestions to achieve max performance?
Hey bud, did you ever figure your set up out? I just bought a 2009 X19 with 175 HPDI that came with a 4 blade Power Tech with a 23 pitch and I'm getting 61mph @ 6100rpms.. I want to try a 24 TXP and a 25 TXP see which will do me better,

THE 150 WOULD BE THE WAY TO GO. I HAVE A 150 YAMAHA ON MY DECK BOAT AND IT DOES NOT BURN HALF THE GAS
I have a 2011 h17 with a 2011 Yamaha 70hp, 6" bob's hydraulic plate, 80# Ultrex TM, 3 agm battery setup, and currently a powertech 18p. Seeing around 37-38mph at ~6300rpms.
Questions
1. What props should I try to get better top end speed with the 70hp?
2. Considering repowering to a 90hp or 115hp SHO (boat is rated for 115hp)- what is the better option for this rig?
3. Talon or Power Pole? Would I compromise performance if I repowered to a larger hp and added 1 talon or 1 powerpole (main concern is weight since these rigs seem to be quite weight sensitive)?

Thanks in advance!
