New props needed for 28ft Donzi ZX w/ Twin 350s
2001 28ft Donzi ZX w/ Twin 350s
Top speed now @ approx 57 to 63 @ approx 4000 "depending on conditions"
Like to get more speed as everyone !!!!!!!
I am told I am not using enough trim (1/4 to 1/2) ???
Have damaged 23s (not sure if I can repair) so I was thinking of going w/ 4 bladed props
Need advise for additional speed & out of the hole if possible ??
Any help will be appreciated
Thanks

I have the same boat. With 23p's you should be hitting 68 to 70. Send your props in to be balanced/tuned. I had a few severe bangs and bruises in mine this spring and lost about 3mph due to it. Max speed with props turning out is 71mph (these are gps #'s).
I'm still learning too - at that speed, you will be hitting the rev limiter @ 5100 rpm.
Trim out a little more. I don't even look at my gages anymore (trim). On your tabs, you shouldn't need any at all.
