Best Prop??
 
I have a 1987 24' Baja 240 Sport with a 460 OMC King Cobra Drive. I currently only hit about 55mph with the prop I have on there now, while turning about 4800RPM. Anyone know what size prop I should have or a way to figure it out to increase my top end?

The best place to start is using the numbers you are getting with your current prop and go from there.

Is there a name or number on your current prop? How many blades is it? Stainless or aluminum? Painted or polished? All this information helps to identify the prop you currently have.

A 24 pitch Mirage plus converted to the ACCLERATOR works great on this set-up,I have a customer running on and he loves it.
