When I bought my new rig last summer I noticed it will jump out the hole but the top end is down a good bit compared to my dads boat and my RPM's are a tad bit high. Im running a 2010 Nitro X5 with a 90 2 stroke Merc. Not sure what size prop Ive got on it as I haven't pulled it off to check yet. I was wondering for you guys with a 90 Merc what is your prop pitch?
