Hey BBC! Feels good to be back on here after taking a few year hiatus.
I have an unconventional setup to try to prop and I bet you guys can help a little.
I have a 1998 Procraft SuperPro 200 and I fell on a 2019 Mercury 200 3.4l V6. I had a 1998 Merc 200 EFI 2.5l before.
When I got the boat it ran a Trophy 25 4 blade and ran near 6000rpm top speed of 70mph. The first year I had it it blew and got a replacement quicksilver powerhead and it just wasn't the same after. Had to downsize to a 21 pitch and lost basically 10 mph. I received the new motor but it's currently a long shaft left hand rotation . I will be converting the LU to right hand short shaft (I'm pretty sure) and wondering what prop you guys would suggest. I'm a big guy and so is my current tournament partner, I'm looking for more for a good holeshot but don't want to over rev my new to me engine. 25 pitch 4 blade again?
thanks for taking the time
