Default Prop ???'s

My 206 is running great now only its tough to get up on a plane. The boat is supposed to have a 21 ptch prop and I am running a 25 the only problem is the rpms are already at 4700 with a 350 magnum if I put on a 21 ptch I am worried that they will go to high what do you think???

Go with a 23" and maybe have the edges cupped a little more. It should plane better than the 25. By adding the cup it will still act more like a 25 when up on plane

Question prop question

They best thing to do is ,we could pitch the prop down 2"in pitch which will make it plane alot quicker,than thin the blades some and add cupping to make it run fast on the top end,also trim tabs are nice to have as well./Darin 281-580-7767

Default sounds good

How much would something like that run me?? Is that like reconditioning the prop?? The speedo is only showing about 35 I hope that its off but I don't think it is. I think the boat is supposed to see 55-60 with the 350 mag!! I want at least 50!!! How much will it raise my rpm's and do you know what the max rpm's should be for that engine??
