Thanks for the reply. I agree with you about the price of gas. My 200 drinks it. I almost bought a boat with a 150. I kinda wish I had now. I dont understand prop pitch, and raising or lowering the jack plate so Ive been afraid to tamper with it. I know it probably could use an adjustment but I wouldn't attempt to do it myself. Besides, it would probably use more gas! Thanks again.

if you have a 201 with the 200 you're running pretty well.A lot
depends on the load you carry.I don't carry a lot of tackle me and my partner are abot 360lbs total put all heavy stuff in the
back that can pick up 3 or 4 mph and that may be all you need.
the type prop and size can dictate your jackplate height.I tried
a renagade and raker with the raker being best i run it
3/4 to 1 inch higher than the renegade.Since you are a little underpowered drop 1 inch or two depending on your rpms it will
still run same top end and pick up the bottom and mid range
dramatically and use less gas at slower speeds,also in this
situation the 4 blade renegade or turbo 2+2 works well.
