On the 33 the 30 pitch 5 bladed Maximus, labbed from Mercury Hi-performance were pretty impressive but banged the boxes. I think we thinned the blades too much, though.

Came out of the whole decent but a little revving.

Pat, my boat is a dream and I am blessed an fortunate to be able to own and operate one. I am also fortunate to be a part of the AT family. Shame on anyone who wants to run their boat above 5200 rpm!:drink:

Sydwayz the boat will not run 87-88 with "stock out of the box props" So far it runs the best with labbed 32's. ;)

Clark seriuosly just leave it alone like my friends said grab a case of coke and put that beatiful girlfriend of yours on the boat and ride and enjoy.I've alot of $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ more than you think I have well put it this way I could of bought a 37' 700 boat cheaper than what I have in mine now and still had $$ for sum red bull for me and beers for you.Hope to see you and that crazy Dad of yours this summer.

Have you guys tried Hydromotives on the 37? They seem to be much better than the B1's in my case...same pitch I get about 300 more rpm's...4-5mph. Throttle Up labbed...they also have a trial program for any props they sell.

Spil, I tried a hydro on my 25 Tantrum and it gave too much stern lift. Hated it....My best performance has been with the Bravo Ones. On my brother in laws old 25 Outlaw the worked great but not for cruise speed, wailin' along at 4000RPM at 50 mph.:eek:

The 37 AVH definitely does not need stern lift. Even running B1 props spinning in is NOT favored.

A 28 straight-bottom with twin SBC is a totally different story; and more than likely going have an ideal setup with Hydros, known for stern-lift.
