Ok guys, this winter I decided to make my project of repowering my 1990 250 sundancer. It currently has a 7.4/bravo 1 drive. I will be putting a mildly built 7.4 motor in her with a bravo 3 drive drive. What size props do you guys suggest running?

It would have been better to have stuck with your original thread. With asking about a prop and not having all the info that was laid out in the previous thread, you would need to restate all the details,

Where this left off you had a choice of a 2.0 or 2.20 drive. Both Scott, I and others recommend the 2.0 ratio drive using 24 pitch prop set, and 22 pitch with the 2.20 drive.

Ok I picked up a 2:00/1 unit so I should go with the 25 p then?
The reason I started a new thread is so I can get done fresh responses is all.

Fresh is good, no problem, but no mention of the variables

They only make a 25 pitch in the Merc XR series 4x3. I still think 24 pitch 3x3 to start
