    prop question!

    as you can see in one of my photos, my buddy is kinda big! when i got all the weight i like ( around 2500lbs) in my 20v, obviously its gonna be a liitle slower out of the whole. my question is, do i need to reprop it???????? or should i rerpop it???????????

    I'm curious about this too... I have an '07 20V as well... What would a different prop do on our boat? What do you gain by changing out props?

      If you reprop you will lose some top end, usually. I repropped this summer and I love the yank your arms off hole shot, I lost 1 to 2 mph top end, but who cares about 41 mph vs 42 on a wake boat. I repropped due to high elevation riding, I boat alot above 6,000 feet, it was well worth it for me. I did leave my new prop on when we went to the Cold Water Reunion and I did ren up against the rev limiter. I will change back to other prop next year. I called ACME and they were extremely helpful and I feel they have me using the right prop for my application. I think the guys name was Bill Weeks at ACME great resource.

        Call the guys at ACME Propellers and give them all of your specs. They will help you figure it out. You usually need to know your RPM @ WOT.

          I'm with you on that, although we're not quite at the altitude you're at, but when we weigh the boat down, it still does well.
