OK, I read the "Read this first" section and the other Stickys so I think I am ready...
1) I want to get a better hole shot. It is a bit slow to plane especially with a full tank and live well (also in the back).
2) I have a SS Mercury Laser II (pn#48-16992).
3) Specs say it is 13.5" diameter and it is 22P.
4) WOT is 5150 (5250 is max) and I get 52mph off the GPS.
5) 2004 Mercury 115 ELPTO 2-stroke.
6) 2004 Nitro NX750, 17.5' and guess on the weight at about 2000 pounds.
I can get a SMOKIN deal on a Trophy Plus 23P and was thinking that would give me a better hole shot plus hold plane a little better at slower speeds. Also, I occasionally go out to pull a tube and the 22p Laser II just will not get up on plane. I know that I might give up a little in top speed but that does not bother me at all. I am a little concerned the 23P 4-blase will drop my RPM.
THANKS!
