Hey guys I bought a 2012 nitro z7 with a 150 pro xs. It came with a 24 pitch prop. It struggles to get to 5000 rpms and on good day I'm only getting 49 mph out of it. And water it spraying out of the side in front of the console like the boat isn't coming out if the water with it trimmed up. I borrowed my buddies 22 pitch prop today and tried it. It got the rpms up to 5400 and came out the hole better but it didn't pick up any speed and didn't help it lift the front up anymore. I e ordered some trim extenders for it to try. But I'm wondering if the motor isn't up too high. It's in the 2nd hole from the top. Anybody else have thus problem and a fix for it? I've been told this boat should run 60 mph. Will a jack plate help this problem?
