Donzi 32ZF Prop help
 

Looking for any feedback on prop size for a 2000 Donzi 32ZF with 300 Verados. The boat had mercury 250 2 strokes on it and I updated to the verados but didn't change the props. Currently using bravo 4 blade 24 pitch.

thanks

300 Verados have a 5800-6400rpm WOT range. I don't know what 250 strokes had for WOT rpm range. What rpm are you spinning your current props??

Getting just over 5800 now

Bravo 1 22P is what you seek.

My 35ZFO with 350 vrods ran the best with the 22P Bravo's, I did switch to Bravo 1 FS 23P (basically a 22.5 pitch) right before I sold it for more top speed.

Either prop is fine, tried rev's, enertia, etc, always went back to the Bravo's.

thanks fir the feedback

Nice upgrade with the 300 Verados. The Bravo 1 24P 4-blades are a solid all-around choice, but since you’re now running heavier 4-strokes with more torque, you might be able to drop to 22.5P or even 22P for better hole shot and midrange without sacrificing too much top end. Verados like a bit more RPM, so aim to get into the 5800–6400 WOT range. Worth testing if you’re not quite hitting that now. Let us know what numbers you’re seeing.

If the boat could use more bow lift, you might want to try a 23P Bravo FS. The FS will often pick up 100 - 200 rpm over a standard Bravo in some applications. A 23P Bravo FS is really a 22P casting with more cup so it will come out of the hole like a 22P but turn more rpm on the top end.
