I am hitting 5000-5100 RPM's at WOT. Max recommended is 4800. The prop is a Stiletto Advantage II 14.25 x 19P. I have tried a 14.25 x 21P Stiletto and RPM dropped all the way to 4400 and I actually lost MPH. It seems that if they would make a Stiletto in a 20P, it would be absolutely perfect for me. Should I take my 19P and have it re-pitched to 20 or should I have more cup added to it? I have read that both methods will drop the RPM a little.
More details if needed:
135hp 3.0L MerCruiser
2.0 Ratio alpha drive
Bayliner 175 with 2 people aboard and gear, with 4 aboard I can still hit 5000 on a long run.
GPS speed 43.xxx
Also, how much should I expect to pay for re-pitching or re-cupping?
