GB'S wheels rocked and he was quick to reclaim them!
I have a feeling that your new 4 blades will be the ticket.

I own the 32 with 300xs. 3 people and 70galllons of fuel 106-108 with 3 blade 34's on the limiters. 109 with 2 passengers
I stretched it to 113 with 30 gallons and just me on the limiters.
I am currently working on larger props but have not spent to much effort ($$$) on it. 33' 4 blades offer amazing acceleration and 105 top end with 4 passengers.
The boat really shines in 3ft seas which is what I like to run over 90 in.
The 300xs is a great motor but it starts retarding the timing at 6150 and shuts down after 6300.
Fuel economy is astronomical.

Dan,
Thanks for the info on the props. I will have some testing to do but this is a start. How fast is the 32' Spectre running with the 15"x34 bblades and 14.75"X32.
Thanks for the info
