25 Rage Best Prop
 
setup - 07 Closed Bow Rage/ 496HO/
i'm running 75mph pretty consistantly with the standard prop that came with the boat (26 mirage i believe). i'm wondering if anyone has a recomendation for prop upgrade. i'm curious if a 28 lab'd prop would get me a couple more mph without compromising holeshot too much... any recomendations on a prop upgrade?

couple questions...

was that 75 GPS?
how many RPMs were you turning?

tthiels25 09-13-2010 02:24 PM

yes the boat has livorsi gps speedo... running in Lake Washington... honestly i'm not sure on the rpm's but it's in the 5100 range... i just purchased the boat so i'm getting used to the setup..

you could prob spin a merc labbed B1 28 then.

i have a stock bravo 28 you could try if you want.

i can spin my stock 28 to 5200 and that is right at 80.

and i can spin a merc labbed 30 to 5300 which was 82

i would love to try the stock bravo 28 hopefully the weather stays reasonable through this month... thanks for the offer!

05R1 is right on track.

I would try his 28, but am guessing it is going to be a bit too much prop for you. A merc lab 28 would spin aproximately the same rpm as the 26 you have now, with giving you a couple of mph everywhere.
