Prop change/ boat lift

Appreciate it Mark, thx.

Will the 1235 change my wake much for skiing or cruising?

Breezer:

You will be all smiles with the 1235.  90% of the boats Wizard brought into our area came with the 1235 (they used to refer to it as the altitude prop).  We have one on our VTX and it does everything well,plenty of grunt out of the hole, 42 mph top speed and more than enough push to get p on plane heavily weighted or effortlessly surf.  Personally I feel there is no need to entertain anything else, yes the 15" props will fit but there is no reason for one given your intended use, the 1235 is economical, easy to find and flat out works well on these boats and at our altitudes.

I cant comment on the effects on the ski wake as I have only ever had the 1235.  I can tell you there are no complaints with the wake behind our boat skiing and a part throttle relaxed cruise can be expected.

Enjoy the boat!

Edmonton boat show is next weekend.  If you find a deal on one let me know.....I have been thinking of picking up a spare.

Awesome thank you, I think the 1235 is the one for me.  Thanks guys for all the info.

I'll be at the boat show Friday buying a boat lift, and of course looking/drooling at all the other stuff I'd like. I will let you know about props when I'm there, if you know anyone selling a used 5000lbs lift let me know.
