Lookind for a used B1 26
Wrecked our labbed finished B1 26 yesterday, dragged it along the bottom of the lake. Looking for another prop. We have a 2000 Checkmate 259 with an ugraded 454MAG about 460HP and 485lbs at 5000RPM. We need a prop that takes some of the porpoise out of our hull design and will run 5000-5100 at WOT. If there are any other props out there that will accomplish this I am all ears. Thanks in advance.

b1 4blade
If you haven't found A prop yet I have one you might be intrested in. It's a bravo one 4 blade, 26 pitch. It was labed finished by Throttle Up. It was set up for my Checkmate 259 Convincor. I had A little cup taken out of it to try to stop the porpoise and serious chine walk at speed. It workgood with my last set up, but I upgrade to A 580 CI. 690 HP. I can't use it now.

prop
IMCO hydrolic steering, Dana trim tabs. Also upgraded to a XR drive. My boat still has a slight porpoise problem, I think it's caused by a too high X dimension. Checkmate used A high X dimension to gain more top speed. Mine was ordered with what I think was A 1/4" higher than what Checkmate normally uses.
