Need some help with prop selection. I have a 1989 Hydra-Sport Vector 2200 W/A. It currently has a Raker 14.5 x 20 prop on it. I am only able to achieve roughly 4900-5000 rpm @ 36 mph per GPS with WOT. I am told this is too much prop for my boat. It currently has a 1989 Evinrude 225 VRO powering it. I would like to find a prop that would get me up to the 5800 rpm range, and still give a good hole shot / bow lift as well as top end. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

I had a 22 Vector with a 200 a couple years ago. I could get a 19 to work OK with the jackplate up a bit but the best prop was a 17 Turbo. Looking back I wish I had tried a 15 Ultima 4.
