    I would most likely go with a 10"plate,and a Turbo1 21",or a K21 Yamaha prop set at 4 1/2" below pad with the 10" plate.If you go any higher your water pressure will drop off.

    Listen to Spanky. He knows his stuff pretty good when it comes to Xpress. Sounds about right as I have a 135 Mariner with 2:1 gears turning a 25 pitch Turbo to 5800 rpm loaded with 2 & a very heavy load to 58 gps.
