Tempest 27 setup?

[Stratos201]

Good morning everyone,
I want to try a 27 Tempest Plus on our 2006 201 with a 225HO E-tec. Right now we are running a 28 Raker II, with the new hub kit, at 2 3/4" below the pad with a 6" manual jackplate. We can only turn it 5500rpm at 72mph full tourney load with 3/4 tank of fuel, 2 people- 1 @ 250lbs & 1 @ 230lbs.

Would the tempest set up be pretty close to the same? We are trying to get a better holw shot and see if we can turn it up to 5800rpm. I have talked to other people and they are telling me the 27 Tempest is the best overall prop for this set up. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

You should be about right for the 27 Tempest.

I have the same boat/setup, just an '05 version, with a very heavy load. My father goes by the keep everything in the boat and u'll never be without it concept, and we're going thru the same thing or issue! I talked with AB and he told me the same thing, that we should try the 27 Tempest! Unfortunately we have not had any time to try it! As soon as I get the chance, I want to try it out too!! Good luck on getting it where u want it and keep us posted!!!
