    Correct prop pitch

    I have a 2002 Ranger 520 Comanche. Can anyone tell me what pitch prop is best for a Tempest Plus 3 blade prop on a 225 Merc Optimax for this year make & model boat. Thank you

    I know someone with a similar size ranger and 225 two stroke running a 25 pitch. How much equipment and what you carry on the boat can change what pitch you might need though.
