| Can you fill me in on your prop selection for the 2060`s you have set-up with a 250XS on the back. |

| Brett, you can't go wrong with the 23p High5. Great big water prop, great hole shot and stays in the water most of the time. You only lose ~2 mph top end. |

Location: Fremont, Wisconsin | A 23 tempest will flat out run, however, it is not the best suited for big water running. You will lose the bite when you come off 4 ft waves and it will slip, ventilate, badly. I have experienced this first hand. A 23 High 5 works great, and I am not so sure you lose any speed. Hardly ever in the walleye tournament world does the wind lords let us to flat out runn. Steve Bohn is running a 250 Pro XS on a 2060 with a 23 High 5. Lets just say Steve is known to let'er rip and he has not had any complaints. |

| I would have thought a 25P High 5. Figure a 23P High 5 would turn too tight with the 250 Pro XS. Steve ran a 23P High 5 on his 1890 with a 200.
Brett, I have a 23P Rev 4 if you want to try that. That was a bit too much for the 225 Opti, but might be a very good prop for the 250 Pro XS. Let me know, and I'll get it to Bendall so he can put it in the boats for you. When is your boat done?
Did you sell your boat to somebody here nere Appleton? I saw what looked like your boat last Saturday morning. Had a couple Yammies(Big motor, and a T8) on the back.

| Brett, my buddy runs two different props on his 2060 with a 250 XS. He likes the tempest for speed and a rev 4 for overall handling. I believe both are 23 pitch. Might be able to get you numbers on speed and rpms, if you would like. I've never ran the high 5, so can't speak to performance of that prop. |
