I have a 25 outlaw with a 502 and Darrin just labed my prop. Our GPS speed prior to the lab work was 67.3 MPH with a 2 foot chop. Our labed prop should be here tomorrow, and we will be on the water on sunday to test it out. I wll let you know how it works. By the way our spedo tube did the same thing when it was new. We just had it replaced with a heavy duty tube.

I don't know what the top rpm is. Haven't had it opened up yet. Did have it to 5000 but had some throttle left. How much to get my prop worked on?
Johnny Bravo - where did you get the heavy duty tube for the speedo? I tie wrapped it but haven't tried it yet to see if it will stay on. Have you tried this and will it work?
Thanks all.

My local mechanic had to buy 56 feet of this tubing from Merc. It seems to be much thicker and stiffer. I also noticed that it is attached in several spots on the drive where it was not before so it looks like it will hold up. My mechanic also said it was a ***** to replace since Merc. changed the design.
Yes, I tried tywraps and many other things to keep the spedo tube attached and nothing would hold up for more than one ride.
Good luck, it took me two years to finaly get fustrated enough to have it fixed.

Thanks for the info. I'll go out and take the ty wrap off and sleeve the tubing, superglue it, clamp it, then ty wrap it and may even put some liquid metal over that before I'll take it to these boat weenies around here. May even replace it with GPS. That'll take care of it for sure.
