A buddy of mine runs a Fountain 38 express cruiser with 496 HO's and Bravo 3 drives...............does anyone have much experience with prop set-up? He wants more lift and has a hard time coming out of the hole..........the forward props are 26's but he doesn't remember the rear props pitch.......any help is appreciated.

thanks very much;

Jay

We set up the exact same boat (a good friend of mine's) with the new 4 blade front and 3 blade rear. We used 25 pitch props and Lab Finished them.

The boat gets on plane quick and easy. It runs just over 60 mph at 5100 and has a great cruise. Call us if we can help more.

i am a fountain dealer. i just set up 3 of these 38's. i had my local prop guy add a little cup maybe 10 - 15 thou and true the wheels. set the tabs on 4 and the boat plains within 15 seconds , without mashing it and stressing the hardware.

cruised about 40 mph at 3500, and toped out at 62.9 at 5300

That sounds about what I'm getting out of mine, my props
are also cupped a bit. I agree b blades set up is sweet.
