2419. With that said, at 4000' elevation you are losing about 40hp from your 335 motor. I would be impressed if you get your boat on plane with all your tanks full, the 1100's, bow sack, friends, and wedge. It will struggle no doubt but you might want to try without wedge first.


I am at 810' of elevation with the 2315 and mine won't plane with 900lb rears full, wedge, and front sac and all stock full with the same engine. If he is looking for it to plane with full ballast and wedge down, he may want to look at 600s or 750s.


Dezul, do you have an extra 650-750lb sack on top of the bow seats when you try to plane? It will most definitely help.


I tried all of this. I almost down periscoped my boat in to the river while slowly coming off of plane.

What weight do you run that is comfortable for you? And you like the 2315 prop?

For the 335 it will be the 2079. It is the smaller of the two which makes it easier for the motor to turn but has a more aggressive cup if I remember right.


I can't recall anyone trying the 2419 prop with the 335 motor. While the 2079 is a 14.5x12 .105 cup, the 2419 is only .5" bigger in diameter but it is a more aggressive cup at .075. Hmmm, I'd be curious myself even though I don't have that boat/motor combination anymore. Might have to call Acme Props or JT at Nettles. Possibly get the 2079 and have it re-cupped to around .075.

Brandon, hate to say it but you're not going to be able to run the fully loaded 1100's in the rear and other full ballast, wedge, plus a handful of people with the 335 motor...it's just too much. 750's-800's probably and have a couple of your crew sit in the bow when planing or throw a 400 sack in the walkway of the bow (I rode with 400 in the walkway with a crew of 4-5 and it wasn't scary to me. I know a couple guys on her that throw a 900lb triangle sack in the bow but they were riding on The Delta which is mainly wakeboarders and calm water).

I agree. The wake will be pimp with either of those bags in the rear. My main reason for the 900s was for surfing. The boat is not weight sensitive so guess-filling the bags is pretty easy for me. I usually run my 900s a little over half full.

Yeah I didn't really figure I could fill them all the way.... But I figured I can have one side fuller than the other for surfing. Since they were almost the same price as the 750s I just bought them. I wakeboard mostly and others in my group surf. And I know for wakeboard I will not have them very full at all.

So which prop? I want a 15"

If you are buying new. I suggest the 2419. If you find a good deal on a uses 2315, don't sht away from it. The only difference is the 2419 has a more aggressive cup. They are both the same diameter and pitch. I am getting my 2315 reworked this spring and I am going to get them to switch the cup to be more aggressive.

If you're flat out asking which is the most aggressive 15" prop it's the 2419 but the 2315 I'm pretty sure will serve you and here comes the "BUT". There's a handful of us on here that are prop junkies and don't mind trying something new. However, those with 335's still were not trying the 15" props, including myself. We tried combinations of the 14.5" with the 335. It wasn't until the 350 motor came out that the 2313, 2315, and 2419 were used widely. I'd call Acme and they can give you an opinion.
