I asked this question in the prop section but only got one responce. I have a 91 Pursuit 2550 w/twin 150 Yamahas running 19 props. I took it out this weekend for the 1st time since buying it and got 48mph@5200rpms. Should I just leave it alone or go with a 17 prop. I had about 100gals of fuel me, my wife and 2 kids. I ran the boat by myself ad them with them no change. Also what is the max rpms for this motor, is it 5500. Advice.

Thanks

Are those Yamahas 2 strokes?

The rev limiter is set at 6050 on that model. I would prefer the 17's and a max RPM range closer to 5800.
