I recently picked up a WX2060 from Charlie at SBC w/ the 250 sho, 9.9 kicker and trim tabs. I love the boat and am looking for a 4 blade, will keep the 19P SWSII for a spare. I am currently getting 55-56 mph at 5800 rpm’s with the 19p SWSII and that is loaded with 2 guys. Just me I get 57 mph at 5800-5900 rpm’s, can get to 6000 but mph falls off and I’m shooting a rooster tail. Also experiencing quite a bit of porpoising at mid range on both take off and slowing down (trim tabs help but do not cure the problem). All break in and testing was done in cold water temps (48-53 degrees), I’m considering raising the motor 1 hole and going to a Bravo I LT in 20p which should keep me in the same rpm range, hopefully eliminate the porpoising while getting better take off and mid range. I’m looking to see if anyone with this boat/motor combo has done this and would like to hear the results. I’m happy with my current set up but am going to get second prop either way so figured if there is something better for this boat I’d go that route. FYI elevation is 1200′.
