Have a question on prop size and what direction I should go. I have a 2005 Honda 225 on my Robalo walk around. Currently I have been using a Solas 15 5/8 x 11 prop. I am running at about 6500’ asl. It usually planes alright with just two of us in the boat with a full tank and gear. But when I add two or three more people I can get the rpm’s initially on start up around 4000-4200 and that is where it will stop until I Hit a wave that allows the boat to Finally hit the power curve and then it will plane. As I do not have a boat shop that allows me to borrow different sized props, any suggestions on what direction I should go? Maybe 4 blade? I appreciate all of the advice I have received in the past. Other than this issue, it has ran great.
