I have a Velocity 29' VR1 with 600 hp . After running a Hydromotive 5 blade 15 1/2x27 80.2@5100. And a Hydromotive 4 blade 15 1/2X30 79@4900 Both needed excessive trim to get my max mph. In the early 70s it chine walks. At my top speed trimmed high it doesn't chine walk at all. I think these props give more transom lift then I need. I'm looking for about 500 more rpm as well as maybe more bow lift to compensate for the excessive trim. The case is a stock XR and the nose is 3" under the pad. I'm thinking I need a Bravo 1 28P?? What do you suggest and have? Thanks,Steve.
