Hey Houston Prop

BRET · 03-26-2004, 10:28 AM

I have a 33Outlaw with 500efi's and 28 p 4 blade bravos. Speed about 77 speedo, no GPS. My question is: should I have these props labbed or should I buy 3 blades and have them labbed, and keep the bravos for spares. Love the plane speed and midrange of the bravos, but would like to touch 80 if possible. Will it slip with 3 blade and what size do you recommend? Also. will accelerator work for me?

Thanks

What year is your Outlaw? Did it come from the factory with 4-blades? The later model Outlaws have a higher x-dimension that requires 4-blade props. Judging by your speed and the fact that you are only running 26s tells me that your boat probably has the lower X.

RIC,I know its higher?? but I think a 1/2 maybe (not alot)

I, would go with some Mirage plus converted to our ACCLERATOR PROPS.

RIC, he mentioned he is running 28's not 26 pitch props.

Give me a p.m. and I will call you we can PROP TALK

LOOK AT THE BLADE THICKNESSABOVE

,AND- NOW below is a STOCK-mirage, check out how massively thick it is ,ready to wipe out a prop shaft and more if you hit something hard.The thinner the easier to spin.

one more thing,you need spair props this will save you from ever having down time on props ,so lab the 28's

and call me and we will get some ACCLERATOR PROPS READY TO GO.

I, am sure your boat deserves it and so do you.

I, had saw someone posted one time it's only money!

Hey Darin whats the latest on my 27's. They are going to have to be right on the money the first time because tweaking them means I'll be without them most of the boating season.

Ric232,
Boat is a '98 with 2000 500efis. Props are new. I love the hole shot and midrange but Rod at Performance says it will touch 80 with 3 blades. I just don't want to lose the bite the 4 blades give. My Fountain took forever to come up on plane and slipped bad in turns. Don't want that again.
