Very Nice looking boat Andy. Enjoy

Ran the boat this past weekend and I am not to happy with the speed. The prior owner had five blade 26 pitch maximus props on the boat. I can only get about 72 out of the boat. Need to find some 28 pitch bravo or 30 labbed bravo props.

Yea, Id throw a pair of stock 28's on there. The boat should run 78-80 easily then.

Ran the boat this weekend with stock bravo 28 pitch props with half a tank of fuel. And saw 75.4 at 4800 rpm. Does anyone have any suggestions for other props to try?

why not some labbed 30's? I would stay away from 5 blades to hard on the drives in my opinion.

The 35 likes a lot of trim to get to speed! Where were drives positioned?

Donzi Andy · 07-10-2009, 07:16 PM

I have run as high as 6 so far. It seems like it takes a lot to get that last few mph out of her.
