I have a 1995 25 hp johnson tiller on a 1994 16ft princecraft starfish 20. The prop is a 10X13 and my top speed is 25 mph at 4950 rpm. Will a 10X12 help me gain any speed or just bring my rpms up.

Welcome to Iboats,

+ rpm (5,100-5,150) should achieve slight better top speed as tested with same 13 pitch & load conditions.

Happy Boating
