High Five 21P or 23P???

[Cristopher]

I have a High Five 21P on a 200HP Merc EFI pushing a 20 ft Tracker Targa. Good hole shot. Just wondering about going to a 23P? I feel RPM's are a little high at WOT. How big of a difference is it going to make going from a 21P to a 23P? Speed? Hole Shot? RPM's? Thanks!

Ok..... My top speed is right aroung 56 to 57 GPS. My RPM's I don't rightly remember. I'm not sure I can totally trust my tach. I know I posted on here or a different forum a number of years ago about right after I went to the high five and I think I remember something like approaching 6k or 6.5k. They told me at that time it was impossible to hit that high of rpm's.... So... I'll take it out and try to get those numbers. Thanks!

Ayuh,.... Cross reference yer tach with a known good shop tach,....

If yer tach is off, spend yer money on it, rather than another prop 1st,...
