G 23 Prop Help

[rons230]

I bent my prop and I was going to get it repaired, keep it as a spare and buy a new one to put on boat. Should I get something different other than the stock prop? I read the old Prop posts and all that did was prove how stupid I am. This is what I have:

Boat: 2013 G23
Motor: 550

We typically wakeboard with 1/2 - full factory ballast, with 4 - 5 adults on board. We also surf a bunch. Really don't care about top end speed. I would probably never add additional ballast over stock.

Thanks for your help

you likely need to stick with 15 x 14.25... likely you have the 2247 as OEM, .150 cup?

if you want a little more tq and hole shot, get the 2249 with slightly less cup at .105. but from the sounds of it the way you use your boat its not necessary, and run 100-200 higher RPMs and use a little more gas when not necessary.

Agreed.
