Need Some Input 92 175 HP Mercury Propeller Help
I have a 1993 Skeeter 200SX with a 1992 175HP Mercury Outboard. I’ve had this boat since 2018 and have been disappointed that for some reason it will only run 50 mph @5500 rpm. Seems to me this boat should be a little faster. The current prop on the engine is a 5 blade “High Five”. I’m not sure of the pitch, as I could not find it etched on any of the blades. I’m wondering if I should purchase a 3 blade turbo prop for it in the hopes a getting a little more speed. Anyone have any ideas that might help would be greatly appreciated.
