" I have a 1993 ProCraft 180 c
" I have a 1993 ProCraft 180 combo (Fish and Ski) with a 150hp Black Max. I've tried several different props but all I can get is 55-56 mph. I'm turning 5700 RPM with a 22 pitch chopper. I would really like to get the boat in the 65+ mph range. Bow lift seems to be a chronic issue with the Fish and Ski style of boats. I've considered installing a Jack Plate but it seems to me that with the driver and passengers sitting so far foward, the gains will be minimal. So my question is, what is the difference between the 150hp and 200hp models? I'm pretty sure in the 1993 model year they were both built with the same 2.5 liter block. What is it going to take to convert this puppy to 200hp specs? Any help from the guru's would be much appreciated. Thanks. "
