Prop recommendation for Hydrostream/Evinrude 175

[RobertBick]

I'm looking for a prop recommendation for my HyrdoStream Voyager powered by a 1982 Rebuilt Evinrude 175. I'm looking for hole shot primarily as i want a quick/hard pull for slalom skiing. Top end is not really a priority.<br /><br />Anyone have a similar combo? Any thoughts?

Select a prop that will allow your engine to turn 5800 rpm at WOT.I am assuming that the Hydrostream Voyager is a 20 footer weighing around 1000 lbs.I am thinking that a 14 1/4 X 23 would be a good starting point.Only a water test and verifying RPMs will dictate your final selection.Find a good propshop or dealer that is willing to let you try a couple of different ones before buying the one that best suits your rig.
