Hey T.U. (Julie)
Might not be able to call in the morn, but it seems that 28 labbed you sent me for my 29 Fountain might be too small. The boat ran 72.7 GPS right at 5350 or 5400 rpm, (needle so close couldn't really tell) but I had about 1/4 throttle still left. ECM said "no mass". Will get the non labbed this week and will let you know. Just wanted to throw you some numbers and maybe some other 29 owners will chime in. SuperMegaGodzilla Thanks!!!

Your slip is real high! With an ideal set up that prop should have been good for low 80's at the rev limiter. If you don't get the non lab 28 by the end of the week give us a call and we will send you one of test props.
Another option to keep in mind; We will be testing several race boats in Tampa this coming week end. You are welcome to bring your boat as well. We can try several different props on it and you can get an idea of what works the best and we can go from there. This would be an opportunity to have an experienced race driver in your boat with you and help you learn a little about your boat.

Re: Hey T.U. (Julie)
UPDATE!!! I'm here in Jax with the stock prop, it was fairly quick to get to 78 with a heavy load of fuel today. Water was a little snotty and the boat wanted to chine walk a little bit so I didn't hold it too long. I believe I was at 5300 on the tack and if I stayed in it a little longer, I might of squeeked another mph out of it. Just writing to give you some numbers, when I get back on Monday, I'll call. Def need to send that labbed one back, it's way too small and get with your demo program. Thanks for everything!!!!
