I posted this in the Props forum but thought I would include it here to get the opinions of other Horizon owners. Any suggestions you can offer would be appreciated.
I just purchased a 2005 Horizon 210 with a 5.0L MFI (Alpha drive). The AL prop that came with the boat needs to be replaced so I'm thinking about stepping up to a SS prop for my primary prop and having the AL one reworked for an emergency backup. According to the FW specs, the recommended prop size for my configuration is a 14.5 x 19. I'm more concerned with getting a good hole shot than I am with increasing my top speed; however, I do want to be able to maintain a respectable top speed. We will be using the boat primarily for pulling my kids (aged 9 and 11) and their friends on tubes, kneeboards, skiis and wakeboards. After reading a lot of threads on the topic of props, I've become interested in a Revolution 4 which is available in 14 5/8 and 15, 17, 19, 21, 23, or 25 pitch. I'm thinking about the 19 pitch for no other reason that that is what I have now. My thinking is that the 4 blades and SS would give me the better hole shot I am looking for. What do you guys think and what pitch would you recommend? If you have any suggestions instead of the Revolution 4, I would love to hear them. The SS props I've looked at are quite expensive so I really want to do this once.....I don't want to end up with a collection of props in my garage.
Thanks in advance for your advice and suggestions.
