At work now, did some checking...

I remember we started with a 23 pitch on mine, salesman at the time boasted the boat should run upper 50's ( I give him crap now that we are working together). We couldnt get the RPM's, ended up going all the way down to a 19, thus losing top-end, but maintaining peoper engine running RPM's.

I found some crestliner speed data:
It doesnt list Ficht, but has HPDI and Opti,
150 HPDI with a 14 1/4 X 21 Stainless 51.6 MPH EMPTY
150 Opti with a 14 5/8 X 19 REV 4-52 MPH empty.

I had the 19 stainless, but it wasa 3 blade, not REV 4 and got the same speed.

depending on the Ficht diameter, you would be a 19 or 21.

good luck

thx much.
