Re: raker pitch size

Rakers come in even numbers so you either have a 20 or 22. If it's a polished OMC 21 it's probably an Viper. If it's indeed a Raker someone has re-pitched to 21 then it'll act like a 21 SST.

Re: raker pitch size

To make an accurate suggestion as to another prop we need to know what prop you're running now. A 21 on a 200 on a 'Stream seems a bit low on pitch anyway. To run 84 with 5% slip the motor will be running at just over 8100 rpm. While that's possible with a looper it's not likely with a crossflow. A 24 or 26 Raker seems more likely. My Vegas YT ran 88 with a stock 200 with a 27 Mazco turning in the low 70000 range.

Post the part number on the prop, that'll help a lot.
