    I have a 2014 WX1900 with a 200 Yamaha 4 stoke (4 cylinder) that is currently propped with a reliance 13 3/4 x 19 pitch. Wide open and trimmed I’m only getting 5100 rpm and about 45 mph. What other props are people using with better performance? Thanks.

    Assuming you are fully trimmed up as far as it will let you go and still only getting 5100 RPM’s I would say you need to go down to at least a 17p or even a 15p. We have had good luck with the turbo 1 props in the 17 and 15p size range.
    I haven’t tested that combo myself so I don’t have exact answers but given your info I would suggest a 15p.

    Thanks for the reply. I ordered a Turbo 1 17 pitch. I’ll let the forum know how the boat performs with the new prop next time I get out to test.

    Interested in what you see with the turbo 1. I have the same boat but with the 200 hpdi. Overall im happy with the perfomance of the stock prop, although i would lime to get a little more bow lift.
