211 owners please help... new prop choice, used SAN props?

[Mikeski]

I know Henry posted about a month ago needing a new prop but I am now ready to buy a new prop for my 211. Mine is a signature edition optioned out like a team but they didn't put the team prop on it. It has the Acme 380 13.5x17.5 and it's pretty slow out the hole. I was all ready to get the 644 13.25x16 but I just saw the 536 13.5x16 (stock 210 prop). Since I waterski about 50% of the time and I like to keep the rpm's down I thought the 536 might be worth some consideration. The boat also needs to hold a strong 42mph for one-foot barefoot.

Please post engine rpm at 34mph and prop size if you can.

With my Acme 380 13.5x17.5 it spins 3450rpm @ 34mph.

I would also be interested in buying an Acme 536 if anybody wants to sell the stock prop from their 210 SAN.

Hi Mike,

I am too, in need of a spare/backup Prop. This might be a good time to see if we can gather up PN members, anyone who would be interested in doing a Prop Group Buy. ?

I also have the 380 on my 226 Team, and i discovered its weak coming out of the hole, but I didnt note down the RPM's. Was considering 644 or 856.

If we can get at least 7 - 10 buyers, im sure we can get a great deal from one of the suppliers or Acme direct.

What do you think ?

I know Henry is in too but I need the new prop before the weekend of 5/7 so I might not be able to wait. I am not sure how much we can save over the $349 shipped from www.boarditup.com, plus Karl DeLoff offers a great exchange program if you are not happy with your prop.

Which motor do you have and what percentage of the time does your boat spend over 30mph? I can't believe they put a 380 on your boat! Another option is to send it back to Acme, they will re-pitch your prop for about $150, seems like that 380 is useless to you.

me too, likely to get the same prop, as I think it is fine out of the hole.

Mike, if you want you can come over and borrow my prop , if you want to test it out

I can check on setting up a group buy. If you're interested in a group buy shoot me a PM and check the Group buy section.

Also, let me know what prop you are looking for.

Does the team edition come with a different prop than the regular super airs? Has the prop. changed since 02???

Yes, the Team does come with a different prop. It has better acceleration, but less top-end speed.

Same with the 211. My Team is a lot better out of the hole but about 2 MPH slower on top end than my Limited was.

FatBoy,
That's because you have so much weight in the trunk...
