I have the newly redesigned 2017 Yamaha F25 on a 1448 Alweld. I am not completely through the break in period, but at WOT I’m turning 5800rpm and going 27-28mph. I put a hi-jacker jack plate with 6” of setback. The boat has trim tabs. I am currently running the stock 9&7/8 x 11&1/4” aluminum prop. There are not many choices for performance stainless props. I am in search for more top end performance versus hole shot. I was looking at the yamaha OEM stainless performance 3 10&1/8x11” versus the 10p. Yamaha says the stainless will drop the rpm approximately +\-150rpm. Not sure if I should go with the 11p because I want to stay in the top 300rpm range for maximum performance of the motor. 5000-6000rpm is the operating range for this motor. The only other choice I have found is Solas and hey don’t have the best reviews. Turbo hot shot isn’t made for the 3” gear case anymore. Any suggestions?
