Triton 21SF w/225 OptiMax?

[mycrimsontide]

Does anyone have this set up? If so what prop are you running and what are you using the boat for.

I purchased an 03 Trition 21SF with the 225 Merc, it has a Trophy Plus 24 pitch and doesn't pull for anything, unable to get skier out of the water.

Re: Triton 21SF w/225 OptiMax?

Im looking at a 220 Escape with a 225 Optimax, pretty much the same boat. Talking to the salesman about props for it, which it has a 21 (the on recommended by Merc) and said if i wanted more top end, i could go to a 23 but I would loose a good bit of low end. If i end up buying it, i will probably go with a 4 blade for the best low end. I'll sacrifice the extra 2 mph on the top for the whole shot.
With all that being said, i would say that a 24 would be alittle too much for popping someone out of the water especially if you have a boat full....but it probably screams on the top end.
