40XD Prop Recommendations

Running a 40XD on a 1754 Gatortrax, looking to see what kind of speeds and reviews any of you have with different props on a similar hull.
Been running a Hammer the past 2 seasons. Seemed to do fine in year 1, but by halfway through duck season on year 2 it was shot. Also ran the stock CA57 for a while, just didn't find that it carried a load all that well.

Try the warrior prop. I have an 1854 gatortail hull and not a gatortrax, but its the best prop ive ran.

What kind of speeds are you seeing? What about with a hunt load?

Before I got a stage 2, I was seeing 26-27mph with a hunt load, I am hardly ever running light/empty so not sure on that speed. With the stage 2 i run 32mph with a hunt load, the low end difference is unreal.

All my buddies are running a the Marine Power 2 prop and swear by it.
I’m running a CA-57 on a 1854 center console Gatortail boat. I have a 37xd with a flashed ecm and the CA-57 carries a load great.
I also have a stage 3 Gatortail 40xd (65hp) on a custom made 1640 hull that I’m setting up now and the engine has a CA-57 on it but I’m about to start playing with props

The marine power is a great prop, but it is pretty soft and wears down quick. A ca57 may be the best overall prop as far as speed, hole shot, durability, etc.
