Re: Superbabi !! Heres your pics of your Y2K

I see you saw the link I found. Between the heads and intakes. Thats worth a few ponies. I don''t go by adding, 2 here, 3 there 3 or 4 here. You''ll definately get up there in mph. I wonder if any of the guys in this sight have tried the new hydromotive 5 blade props. From what I hear their good at midrange and worth alittle at wot.

Jcap is racing with a 5 blade Hydro.
I think he said 3mph faster and much better over all than a 4 blade bravo.

Here they are.
Installing the rear stringers. The bulkheads are temporarily in as an alignment tool to set the stringers. Once the stringers are bedded in, the bulkheads will be removed and the stringers glassed in place. Then the bulkheads will be glassed in place.

Re: Superbabi !! Heres your pics of your Y2K

Gary, ask Jcap directly what he has seen for gains with the 5 blade.
I did speak with him about them at the CT river run. He told me his boat runs 88 with a Bravo I and 91 with the 5 blade hydro.
You will not likely gain 3mph; say for 74 to 77, but maybe 74 to 75-76...
Krackmeup was going to try one; that will give you a true gauge.
