    I have a 2018 721 with 12" atlas, and 2-8' blades also so not apples to apples. I do have all lithiums. So far I've ran stock 26 fury, stock 25 fury, stock 25 tempest, stock 24 TXP 4B, stock 23 tempest, worked 25 fury, worked 25 tempest. I've settled on 3 props, 23, 24, 25 furys, all worked for more bow lift. Still doing testing because I'm just anal like that. I'm a firm believer in running a prop that you can turn at the top of the rpm range. My last outing, full fuel, livewells empty, but tourney loaded with 2 aboard, 23 fury ran 73 turning 6050rpms. Didn't think that was too bad considering the heat/humidity in south louisiana. All my tackle in front deck. I know some say since going lithiums the boat is faster with water in livewells and heavier tackle in the rear so I'll have to test those theories out.

    Are you wanting speed? Holeshot? Handling? What are your numbers with the props you've ran?

    Added my info to the top. I was hoping for low 70’s, but I guess my motor is just not a hot one. I have 325hrs on it with no problems and have moved weight to rear compartments.

    rpm's seem a bit low. i usually run a fury 24 3B, will pick up a few rpm's and better hole shot.
