prop size question

[hammlfam]

I have a Glastron 195sx with the 4.3 Volvo engine at 190 hp. I use the boat mostly for watersports.(skiing, tubing and wakeboarding) I currently have a 14 1/4 x 23 prop and I'm looking for something to give me the best hole shot. It is a 3 blade now and I'm thinking of going to a 4blade. What are your opinions?<br /><br />Thanks<br />Jef

Re: prop size question

If you are going to by another prop for this aplication, I would suggest a High Five, Five blade if you want pulling power. Providing your RPMs are in the sweet spot right now, you would probably have to use a 19-20P High Five. They are on Ebay all the time, in the $250-300 range. You could pull stumps with this prop.
