That's a big jump, especially for 225
What rpm's are you at on the top end with the 22?

53-5500.....I want to get more speed what size you think I should go too..

Im going to try that 25 just to see what it does but I thought it would be too much also

Your rpm's seem to be extended already with the 22!
You may see a Lil bit more speed with the 25, but the motors gonna be working hard to turn it, especially with 3 people in it!
How old is your 22 or how long has it been since its been worked!
That Lil sled of yours was turning out good numbers a while back

Nov 2009....Had it re worked about two months ago..... seems my boat has lost some speed...wide open im hitting around 5300 give or take some @ 59mph.... use to hit 62-64

Wide Open 01-19-2014 07:04 PM

Yea, that prop don't seem rite!
Another 22 in new fashion would put u back where u were, unless yo can find a real good prop guy to get that prop back rite again!
Baggy @ Baggys prop shop in Houma does real good work on merc props!
I had a brand new 21 rev 4 that I wrapped a trap around on my second trip, out and he got it back perfect!
There's another guy that the guys on bass boat central swear buy, mark croxton with croxton props! They say he is the guru of working metal!
He also builds some propellars u may want to look into!

I work for merc, you're right, I have no idea what I'm talking about.

jldsc 01-20-2014 12:15 PM

its a bravo I XS which has thinner blades and pvt holes and a cut down body...I dont think he'll have a problem turning it.

I'd like to know, my factory info tells me the tolerance is lower. My throttle hand tells me to shower on it some more!
