Props

[rensink]

As I know a lot of people switch props to the 1235 but what about the 1619? Any insight on which is better for lets say 3,000lbs of weight in a 2010 Rz2 and also what about hittin the rev limiter with those props?

The 1619 is a 13.5 Dia prop, same as the stock 537, but it's going down a bunch in pitch from the 16" of the 537 to 13.75. IMO, this is going to really run the RPM's up.

Props like the 1235 and 1273 go up in Dia as well as down in Pitch. This gives you the increased bite, better hole-shot, improved speed holding and greatly reducing cavitation without overly increasing the RPM's.

The 1619 would improve the hole-shot, but IMO, it's not the best choice to swap out the 537 with.

The rev limiter would be the least of my concerns.

My boat hits the rev limiter when it is unweighted and WOT, but not until I hit 42 MPH. But I don't care, because I never ever ever do that (until it was suggested to me to see how my prop performs). My hole shot is awesome, even with gobs of weight and I don't need to go any faster.

FWIW, I have my RPM's a bit high with the current prop, so I am investigating actually moving up in pitch to get the RPM's down, but I think that I might end up losing some hole shot if I do that. It is always a trade off. My boat has an 8.1L engine, so I might get away with it.

I have a 1433 and the hole shot is great but a lot of prop wash at any speed. Although does not affect the surf or wakeboard wake
