Purchased a 2005 Ranger Reata 210 VS this year with a 225 Optimax on it. The prop is a Highfive 23 pitch.
I have noticed the boat gets a lot of bow rise out of the hole but goes on plane within 3-5 seconds (with two people and fishing gear), tends to "porpoise" at mid speed but runs flat and smooth at 4500-5000 rpm.
During one outing, I had a mix of 7 people in it (three kids) and it was difficult to get on plane unless really gave it some hard throttle.
The motor is mounted in the center hole of five (back plate).
One of my fishing partners (and I) suspect the prop is the culprit. Will use the boat for fishing and tubing with kids (age 7-11).
I would really appreciate any thoughts or advice anyone has to offer....Thanks in Advance.
