Prop for 200V

[Pjoachim]

Has anyone switched out the factory prop? If yes which one did you go with?

I have noticed that switching from my older ski to the sport I have lost about 10mph in top end.

Right now I'm maxing out around 39 mph and that limits some of the activities we used to do. Barefoot ing being one of them.

Otherwise we love the boat.

Looking for some insight from others.

That hull just plows/push's a lot of water. We have the standard prop on the 200 V, I pulled a barefooter and couldn't get past 36-37 miles per hour (343). PIG. Pretty amazing slalom and surf wake though. Lots of info here, albeit is for the 200 direct drive. Should push you in the right direction.

I have switched out my prop but I prefer the stock one and plan to switch back (whenever I get around to it). I have the ZR409 so my setup might be a bit different. My stock prop was the Acme 381. I can't for the life of me remember my current prop model but it too is from Acme. I considered going with the Acme 2003 which is a larger diameter but decided against it. I spent quite a bit of time speaking with Jim Thelen at Acme and was really impressed with his customer service- I suggest calling him with questions. My new prop isn't bad but I think the stock one was pretty well fit for the boat. I was getting 45.5 mph out of the stock prop- I'm down to 43.5 now. I'll keep looking around for my current prop #.
