This is a very common question for us and the answer is very basic. The typical propeller furnished with many new boats today is propped for maximum speed. To pull a water skier or any other type of pulling condition you require more thrust than top speed. This is easily accomplished by reducing the pitch of the propeller, thus increasing RPM and reducing top speed. Usually two inches of reduction in pitch from a propeller is all that is required. Many of our customers prefer to carry on board a prop for maximum speed and a prop for maximum pull.

Note: When operating your boat never allow the engine to operate beyond its maximum rated RPM.
