Subject: Prop Recommendation for for Ranger Angler 1880MS




Posts: 31


Hi All, I am looking for recommendations for a prop for my new Ranger Angler 1880MS. The boat has an I4 Merc Verado 200 and a 19 pitch Tempest Plus with the vent holes open. I now have 20 hours on the motor and am getting 49 mph at 6200 rpm with just me, my fishing gear and 1/2 tank of gas. Hole shot is good, 0 to 30 in about 7.5 seconds, but not awe inspiring. I am looking for good overall performance. Most of the time I am fishing inland lakes, but some of the time I just cruise, pull skiers or tubers and I also want to fish lake Michigan and Green Bay occasionally. I am hoping to see 51 or 52 mph without loss of hole shot. Has anybody with this rig tried a 20 pitch Bravo FS? Any other suggestions?
