Gettin Throttled UP !!!!!

I ordered a set of Throttle Up 5 blade CNC props for my 32' with 300 X's. I am very excited about trying them out. From what I have heard from some reliable folk that the performance gains I may enjoy should be pretty damn good.

I just wanted to say that Julie from Throttle Up is extremely knowledgable and has been nothing but a pleasure dealing with up till this point. Very cool people !!

Hopefully within a week or so I'll be able to report back to you all some good news !!!

I also just ordered a set from Matt and Julie for my 32B with 300XS's.. I tested a set of Herings yesterday morning but with 20degrees of rake they just carried the bow way too much so I called Matt gave him the specs and he's making me a set similar but with less rake..I'll let you know..

P.S. The difference from 4 to 5 blades is fantastic, the 5 Blades feel like a sewing machine they are so smooth

I've been running 15x31 4 blades (32's cut to 31) and have had the best results. I've seen a best of 94.8mph with these props and the 300XS's. I know there is more speed in it once I play with engine heights. I'm having the new props made with a 15.25 diameter which should allow me to come up another 1\8 inch.

Nice, it will be cool to document the type of gains we will see with our new CNC props. I look forward to sharing info together.

Keep in touch !!
