1995 mako 205 dc. It has a 130 Johnson ocean pro. I know its a lil underpowered. Right now it has a 15x17 prop but im only getting 5000-5200 rpms max. Its a heavy boat. Im trying to get the rpms closer to 6000. What size prop would you recommend? Thanks for any help.

Welcome to IBoats,

Personally would try a 15 x 13, should put the wot rpm near 6 K. Besides being a heavy boat, how many souls were on board when the motor achieved 5.0-5.2 K wot revs ?

Happy Boating

Forgot to mention before i reprop im going to raise the motor probably 2 holes. I think its mounted too low as at wot trimmed out i cant even see the av plate. Im thinking that will raise rpms some. Not sure how much tho
