Does anyone have a good condition used 28P B1 RH laying around? Im in need of one to try and see if I like it more than my 27P Mirage Plus.

Many Thanks

What rpm was the 27 at ?

Im getting 5200 out of the 27, but it likes a LOT of trim.

You know that 28 bravo is gonna pull your rpms down about 400 right ? If you have enough motor to turn it.

Wow, I didnt realize it would drag me down that much. I was thinking 200 ish. I would like to be around 5000-5100 rpm. I have a B1 24P that over revs way too easy, so it makes me think that a B1 26P will not be enough.

I didnt expect the boat to turn the Mirage Plus 27 as good as it did, but it does. I want something to help me out of the hole, and cruise speed. The Mirage Plus doesnt do too well on the low end.

You gotta figure your adding pitch...wich will lower your rpm some....then your adding ANOTHER BLADE..lol. What motor/combination do you have ?

BBADWS6

The motor is a 502 mpi mag. I read adding a blade takes you down about 100 rpm or so (in my pitch range), and that a B1 is comparable to a Mirage Plus with one less degree of pitch. I appreciate your comments, and hope to get some more input!

I was figuring the B1 28P would be around 4900 ish, but i may be giving the boat a bit more credit that is due in the power dept.
