I have a 1991 Charger Foxfire 200T with a Evinrude 200xp. What would be your suggestion on prop model and pitch. Not looking to go fast would like fuel economy and occasionally pull kids on a tube. Im kinda leaning toward a 4 blade. Give me your thoughts please.

I can't help much with a Rude but you will be asked what prop you have now and what are the rpm's at WOT and how is the holeshot....

I have an Aluminum 3 blade 21 pitch. RPMS WOT at 6000. But I never run it at that. Hole shot is great. Lays down fast. If your on it and not paying attention when it comes on plane it will over rev. so as your coming up on plane you have to back the throttle down or it will push the bow down fast and over rev. I had bought a 24 I believe Raker 3 or 4 years ago but it mysteriously disappeared before I went back to the lake that yr.

Call Josh at Steve's Custom Props in Quitman. Be prepared to ditch that boat anchor aluminum prop and invest in a SS prop.
