Acme 1617 test drive in 210

[PKKup]

So, I've raved about the new 210. It's loaded with almost 3000lbs of ballast with a 343pcm. To be clear the stock prop more than gets the job done. Curiosity got the best of me and figured a spare prop couldn't hurt. Spencer at WM's recommended the 1617. It has turned the boat into a rocket. Actually gave me 1-2 mph more and launches out of the water. Running higher rpm's, but couldn't be happier. If you are at all in the fence or looking for a spare. I highly recommend getting one!

1617 is a great prop for heavily ballasted 210s. I have it on my boat also. Not sure how you're getting more top end though - unless you are running it past the redline (which it will do btw), and even then I'm not sure how it is possible.

This would be interesting as I also just took delivery of a new 2014 210, and upgraded to a 409 because I am a barefooter as well. IMO, the 210 is the best all around boat in the lineup and the best they have for footing. Love the surf wave, boarding wake is great (especially with pro ballast), and ski wake is good. The only thing left to do, is figure out how to install a removeable pylon in a 210 so I can use a boom. I'm not crazy about the tower mounted versions, too much torque on a very expensive item that I need to function properly.

A tiny bit faster. Stock prop I'd get to 39-40. Which I thought was kind of slow. Now I get to 40 and a little more with one smooth roll on if the throttle. My guy at marina thought stock I should be 44. He thought maybe the stock prop wasn't the team one. Either way the new prop eliminates me thinking I should have gotten the 409.
