Currently the boat runs 83 at 5600 with a 28 pitch non labbed bravo I. I am installing an imco 12 setback -3" raise extension box and wonder if the hering 5 blade bravo style would be the best place to start.

Before the extension box is installed, I currently have 5 1/4" from propshaft to keel. I am pretty sure the boat won't even come on plane after raising the x dim this much with a 4 blade.

anyone done something similar or have their .02?

Thanks in advance ]]> Prop Talk formulaok http://www.offshoreonly.com/forums/prop-talk/220209-what-prop-try-now.html http://www.offshoreonly.com/forums/prop-talk/219902-bravo-1-30-labbed-bblades-turned-29s.html Wed, 11 Nov 2009 20:38:40 GMT I have a pair of Bravo 1 30's labbed by BBlades for Baja and turned down to 29's.

BBLADES PROFESSIONAL PROPELLERS:
SEE YOU IN KEY WEST!



BBlades Professional Propellers is extending a special invitation and offer to boaters attending the Offshore World Championships and the concurrent Florida Powerboat Club's annual Key West Poker Run November 11th through the 15th.



BBLADESwill be exhibiting in the "Poker Run Village" at as part of the CP Performance/Hardin Marine display, offering propellers from Mercury, Hering, Hydromotive, Acme and Turbo; talking with boaters about the proper props for their boat, set-up and other performance topics and giving visitors a chance to win free "Lab Finishing" or "Blue printing" for new or existing props.

"It is a very good opportunity to see our customers face-to-face, rekindle old friendships and begin some new ones," says Brett Anderson of BBLADES. "Our drawing for free propeller work has been very popular at this event and is our way of saying 'thanks' to our loyal customers.

BBLADES will also be in Key West supporting the race teams which use its products, and are planning a special welcome for their newest race partners, SW1 Capital, who are in Key West just one month after completing the 2009 Powerboat P1 World Championship series, where they finished fourth in the first complete season of offshore racing around Europe.

Anderson says the Key West event s often the end of the season for many boaters and being at Poker Run Village offers a good opportunity to meet with customers and discuss off-season winter propeller work they may need.

Anderson invites everyone to stop by the BBLADES display at the Conch Republic Seafood Company to say hello and talk boats, boating and of course, propellers. ]]> Prop Talk bbladesprops http://www.offshoreonly.com/forums/prop-talk/219842-bblades-propellers-key-west.html http://www.offshoreonly.com/forums/prop-talk/219504-maximus-prop-help.html Tue, 03 Nov 2009 17:09:34 GMT I have a 1994 Cigarette TOP GUN. 2 blown 605hp motors.

All I know is they were 4 blades and port had a 2 inch hairline in it with a stamp of KME 986// J 655 & J 340. The Starboard prop has KME987// J 340. The ratio is 23 outer- 35 inner on port and 26 outer and 35 inner starboard.
