Any reason I shouldn't run a Raker 22P on the this motor? I have a Raker 24P now and it seems like a bit much. Will the power pack keep the motor from over reving?

Power pack is limited to 5800 rpm. Prop depends on boat length, weight, design. Lots of if's. I usually have run 22-24 pitch on 18 foot Ranger hulls and similar with the crossflow 150. Experiment. You want to prop for normal load/full tanks, ect and prop for WOT 5600-5700 rpm. Dont under prop and stay on the limiter and don't over prop and lug it......with the motor running good now, should be able to swing the prop easy. Experiment and have some fun...
Age and treachery will always overcome youth and skill !!
Sounds good. I'll see what I get with both.
