Title: Prop 245 explorer with 250 Johnson
Post by: Twa7c4 on February 26, 2023, 03:42:15 PM

Please help folks. What’s the best prop for a 245 explorer with a 250hp carbed Johnson? I want to have the best cruise speed for efficiency

Not sure where you are located but in Sarasota we have a company named "Prop Gods" that works with people to get the best prop for their needs. https://propgods.com/

Thanks maybe I’ll give them a call, I’m about 2.5 miles away. I wish somebody with this setup could tune in.

I think you'll like working with them. We have a a lot of members that went to them.

There is a longtime member over on Boat Builder Central with a user name "TomW1" that helps people calculate what prop is best - I see him working with many people over there.
The difference with Tomw1 and Prop Gods is Prop Gods lets you try props to see if it really works as calculated (at least they used to).
