I'm trying to understand propellers
Sorry about that M. I was not trying to be insulting just funny.
But what I say is true. The 200hp boat would be faster.
In my scenario the 200hp boat is lighter.
Sincerely,
Injam

The same fast. Yes boats go same fast, Tarzan.
whatever you say
a. The 200 HP motor could not rev up to 6000 rpm IF its a prop for the
250
In my scenario the 200hp is turning at 6000 RPM.
read my post ....
b. If the prop is for the 200 HP motor the 250 would rev at 6000 not be
able to put more power in the water.
I don't even know what you are saying.
I imagine
c. The 250 would accelerate faster until it has reached 6000 rpm and
there have the same speed as the 200 (if it can swing the prop).
The 200hp can (swing the prop), but because of it's lighter weight the
200hp
would pass the 250hp on are about the five mile mark. At the ten
thousand-mile mark the 200hp would be approximately five thousand miles
ahead of the 250hp.
Thats just not true. A lot of 200 and 250 HP motors weigh exactly (!)
the same (i.e. Verado) and if one weighed 20lbs more it would hardly
noticably affect top speed.
The 200 HP would be ahead? How that?
If so the 250 would be ahead as it would accelerate up to your 6000 rpm
faster as the 200. Since EVERYTING else is the same. Same boat, same
weight, same prop. They would then continue with lead the 250 has.
Same rpm under same conditions will get the same speed. Duh.
Just having a little fun.
Getting a little insulting with "Tarzan" comments as well?
