My 290SC is approximately 3.75 inches below the pad.

Thanks, I'll have to re-measure the correct way. Boat is all covered up now and although the dock is in, my local AKC club has their 4 day dog show this week and I am the grounds chair. Boating season will start next week for me.

Agree with that method as that's pretty much the exact way of doing it, dual levels/good straight edge won't lie to ya.

OK, leveled the boat fore & aft, leveled the drive and measured. Looks like 3 3/4 inch..
Any Velocity people try BBLADES four speed prop yet?

Just bought a tweeked 25P Merc Revolution to try out. Boat ran a labbed 26P BBlades Bravo 1 when bought, picked up another Bravo 1 off Ebay (not labbed) that was worked by someone (blade profile different than OEM) and it runs faster than the BBlades by 3MPH. I'm trying to get away from all the stern lift to see how how it runs. Tested props same day, same water, same wind same fuel etc, etc, so my claims are valid.

Sounds right on. Talking with Kenny it's just right for this hull. We're lucky, others spend big $$ on shorty's to get close to out propshaft depth. I would like to try that new prop. Probably not until next year after the new setup.

Take a look at the old post I pulled back to the top yesterday. Good info there.
