I recently purchased a used 2003 Triton SF21 with a Mercury OptiMax 225. The boat came with a 24 pitch SS Trophy Plus prop, and I'm having a hard time with the hole shot. I'm having a hard time pulling a skier out of the water, it also bogs in corners. I tied pulling the vent plugs and it made some improvement with initial acceleration, however it spins out now before getting up to plane. I can not find a dealer willing to demo a prop for set up.
Does anyone have a similar set up, I was considering staying with the same prop and dropping pitch, but wasn't sure if that would be the best set up either.
It also doesn't want to hold plane at low speeds, speedometer not working, but the speed I'm running at isn't too low, I guess 22-26. I have not trimmed it out with just me in the boat but I'm guessing 5600 5800 WOT maybe a little less.
Any suggestions please!
the prop is : 48-825940 24P
