1997 Pantera setup help

[jhndrtxn]

I have a 1997 Pantera 2 with a 2012 Mercury optimax pro xs 200. I have 2 12ft talons on the back and just switched from a Tempest Plus 23p at 4 in below pad running 65,66 at 5700rpm, to a fury 4 25p same setup for base line and am getting 62 mph at the same rpm but with more trim than the Tempest, I am wondering if I have the prop too low in the water to get the performance from it, hole shot is smooth slightly better than the Tempest, I have a 26 Tempest as well that I could try but I like how the fury sticks in the turns Tempest seems to slide more

move to 3.5 and retry for the tempest fury needs to be 1/2 lower more or less than the tempest a 24p fury 3 should be the best prop likely (was on my p3 at least)
