I've got a 4 blade 26 Pitch Renegade on my Johnson 225HO, best I've got fully loaded has been 65.4 GPS always wondering if a different prop would be worth the money. Previous owner said he had tried them all pretty much and this was the best he could find.</TD></TR></TABLE>

Raker's only come in 3 Blades, with even pitch numbers. The Renegade's are the 4 Blades with odd pitch numbers.

Now, for your setup question.....if the previous owner tried all kinds of props, but never adjusted his setup, the Renegade might have been the best. But, that would have been the only way the Renegade is the best. And, you do not have a 26 pitch Renegade. They have never made one. Are you going by what is stamped on the prop, or what the previous owner told you? Look inside the prop, there should be some numbers stamped on the hub. Should be, for instance, 14 1/2 X 26 (That's a Raker). The Renegade will have 13 5/8 (or something like that) X 25 or 27, etc.
