2004 200HP2 stroke minimum and maximum RPM

[Lakeview42@frontier.com]

What in the minimum and maximum RPM @ full throttle for a 2004 200HP 2 strike Yamaha outboard? I need this unfo to get the correct pitch prop

4500-5500 rpm's is the WOT rpm range.

Yea, that's what is say's in the owner's manual. Seems like a huge spread. How come a lot of techs say to prop to achieve 6,000 RPM?

I had a 115HP Yamaha on a 16' Checkmate and I could trim it all the way up to chine walk at 5800RPM's, but really about 5500 was a good, safe WOT speed. What's the advantage of running 6000RPM's?...kinda asking for trouble with the motor running like that. There's a rev-limiter on them anyway. Good Luck!

I propped my 2002 200 HPDI to about 5800 light.
