F22 Prop Recommendation


Raisin' Cain

Recommended Posts

Needing a new prop.  2014 F22, 350 with 1.5 trans (I think).  With factory full, 800's in the lockers, 600ish in the bow, a few hundred pounds of stereo, slapper deployed, 5 person crew, and 585ft elevation, she will only get up to 9mph at about 3200 RPM.  Running a 2249 now (will probably sell when I get the new one).  ACME recommends a 2419.  Found a pretty good deal on a 2079, but I'm running a 15" now, so don't really want to go smaller.  I usually cruise at about 30mph, not sure what top speed is, maybe 38-40ish.  With factory plus bow bag, usually run ~3000 rpm at surf speed.

 

What are you guys running?

How much weight?

What RPM at surf speed?

Cruise speed and RPM?

Top speed?

 

Anyone looking to get rid of a 2419 or buy a 2247, let me know.

2016 F22, 400 raptor, boat at 5,200 ft. 1.5 trans

 

I called Acme and he suggested the 2937, he said they made this prop specifically for F22s, heavily weighted at elevation.

 

Only get 30-32 MPH at 5500 RPMs

 

I've been pretty happy with it. We pretty much surf, the other stuff is whatever. Plenty of power out of the hole.

2775?  I'm also interested in that one and maybe even the 2773. Want to keep RPMs as low as possible, but still pull weight.

 

2773 works amazing, but that’s on a 16 f22 with raptor 400 and 1.76 trans. Took me from surfing at 5400 rpm to 4-4300 depending on weight. Gets on plane as easy as the 2775 did as well.

I have the newer trans ratio and mine will surf at 4500 and top out at 32 mph at 5900 feet(2775).  I would assume a 2775 to you would be like a 2247 for me. and they are 2 pitches different. 2247 puts me about 3800-3900 while surfing at 11.1

2775 running 3k ballast and about 7-8 people usually on the boat.

sounds like you need more bow weight to get over the hump. I have hit a wall with the 2775 a few times and have to move adults to the front. i am getting ready to invest in lead to add as far forward as i can get it. my bow bag just isnt quite enough
