Hey guys, I own a 2004 Donzi 18 Classic with a 350 magnum (300 hp), sport master, stellings extender box and Ziegler performance marine steering system. We have been testing props to see what works the best (and top speed)

so far the props we have tried are the mirage 25, mirage 23", Mirage lab 25 (couldn't turn it), 24 Tempest (too much bow lift), 22 quad IV intimidator up pitched to 23, lab 4 blade 22 up pitched to a 23" recreational prop, 23" Cleaver.

So far, the 23" Cleaver (4700 rpm) has worked the best but it still seems like the boat has a little more to go. maybe up to 5000 or more. Anyone have a set up similar/what props have worked the best? Thanks a lot.

I have found that the 23P Mirage Plus and the Ballistic 25P work best on my rig. depends how you like it to ride.

Have tried:

Hydromotive 22P
Turbo1 24P
Stiletto 25P
Mirage 23P
Ballistic 25P

I had the Mirage plus 23 and switched to a 23 Turbo 1 and i like the way my boat rides with the Turbo.
