Hey guys Im new to the boating world and have been reading about changing your prop for better hole shot, better top speed, a mix of both etc. I researched the current prop on my boat and wanted to know what the best prop I should have for the results I am looking for? It may be what is already on there?
Ok the boat is a 1985 Chris Craft Scorpion 210 with a 5.7l mercruiser V-8. Right now I have a Mirage Plus 3 blade, I'm not sure of the pitch on it though.
I am looking to do a little tubing and knee boarding but mostly just crusing around in the bay. I have had it out a couple of times since I got it last month and it seems like it takes a little bit to get on plane with 4 people on board. Any ideas would be appreciated, I have found general info on what is good and what props do what but nothing boat specific. Just looking for some more insight!!! Thanks guys!

I had a 21 Chap that came with a 19p. I changed it to a 21p 3 blade. I tubed and skied behind it all the time with know problems. I could even pull up two guys on slalom ski. It had a 5.7 260 hp.
