I ran a 23 trophy and I found a 23 three blade tempest to run better out of the hole, and all the way around, for me. 3500-4000rpm out of the hole is good, if you aren’t blowing out your rpm’s are correct on holeshot. If it were me I’d start by lightening my load, and balancing the boat out. Depending on where your rpm’s are at wide open, and considering you don’t open it up much, you might want to consider dropping a pitch on your prop.

What do you mean "Blowing Out Your RPM's"
