    Cx20 prop suggestion

    Hey guy. First time poster. Running a caymas cx20 with 250 proxs. Currently running a 24 fury 3 @ 5850 rpm @72-73 mph. Satisfied with the top end (but wouldn't be mad if I gained more) but the handling is not the best. I have tried a tempest, bravo fs and a trophy also. Thinking about trying a promax. Can anyone give any info on a promax on a caymas or similar boat? What is yalls thoughts? Thanks guys.

    you have tried all the best ones it seems? a 23 fury 3 might be better for top end and holeshot. you should rev to 6200 all but dead of summer---measured ptp? what is off on the handling? need to list what you want to correct? every prop has gives and takes also

    Ptp varies with load. Hydraulic jackplate adjusted for best speed. The problem with the handling is you can turn any above 60mph or it starts a bad roll.
