Yeah you’d think. Nothing in first six pagesCheck out this link/thread. As you go through it, I’d imagine you will find your configuration: R23/Yammy 300.
Boat Specs
What is you WOT RPM and speed?I have a 2020 23RFBA with ESP and a 300hp Yamaha. Bennington recommended a 15.25x16 Saltwater, but I requested and got a 15.5x17 Saltwater II per recommendations here. My prop seems pretty well matched, though not sure having the motor mounted in the lowest position was the best choice.
I have 300 Yamaha on R23 with same prop and top speed is 47/48 and could probably do better if i raised my motor.I'm running a 15 1/2 X 17 Yamaha saltwater 11, that the dealer installed. It seems to work fine for what I do. Basically a day cruiser.
Just like Andy, lightly loaded I max out at 5800 or 5900 running about 48 mph though I believe on squeeze out more on a cool day and fine tuning the trim.What is you WOT RPM and speed?
Thanks
Are you running the SW2 17?Definitely, based on the fact that I had essentially the same boat but heavier and a smaller motor (250 SHO) and had a higher top speed and LOVED throwing it into a corner! I would think it should be a 17 as well. I honestly don't remember what hole my motor was mounted in, but that also plays a huge role.
Yup, in my signatureAre you running the SW2 17?
Not what you will want to hear, but here it is: You had very good advice earlier in the thread that went unheeded. Looks like your first mistake was what I isolated in the quote above. Switch it up based on the expert first hand advice above and I am sure you will be thrilled with your new boats performance.I didn’t request a certain prop, I let the dealer rig it. They installed a Power Tech 15-1/4”x15 four blade.
