I bought a used 14 Cougar with a 225ho that came with a 26 fury prop that would only run 68-70, after talking to a prop guy he told me the fury was not a good choice with an Evinrude. Lucked up on a 26 Raker at a good price and boat ran 72-75 depending on conditions and still came out of the hole pretty good. Later on traded the fury for a 27 tempest plus, it performed very close to the raker. Hope this helps.
