Hey guys I'm running a powertech 15.25x15 prop only pushing 5400 rpm and 36mph think diameter too much for my yamaha 200 and tritoon. thinking of switching to reliance 14.5x15 or turbo 1 14.25 x 15 too raise a couple hundred rpm... im afraid to lower pitch cause i dont want to lose any speed... any suggestions on the best prop for max mph... whether it's the ones I mentioned or another thxs

Yams usually revs at 5000-5000 wot rpm range , if so, you're there at 100 wot revs from max. If going for a 16 OEM pitch prop toon will achieve slight better top end speed while losing slight top hole shot while revving at around middle wot rpm range, only checkable with tach..

Happy Boating
