Im sure this is a prop question but listed it in Motor Category, Just wondering if I should even bother with it at all. The stock prop that came with my 150 Pro XS is a Tempest Plus. It's still in the break in a little but when I open it up for about 10 sec or so I can't get past 5250 to 5400. Top speed (one person)60 maybe 61 on (GPS)and then I back off. Live well full , two people and loaded I'm getting about 58 to 59 The speed seems right from what others have said though. So if I'm getting the right speed do I need to be up in the higher PRM range even? 5250 is just getting in there with a loaded boat but it is still making the range , right? And Mercury says they hit 57.8 MPH with the XS. It seems to be all right.
