Your brother's boat is nice looking. All white boat sometimes makes a great statement. Great seeing someone taking good care of their Awesome. New owner is talking about forming an Awesome Owners Club. Time will tell. I am keeping a positive attitude.

Still working on finishing the engine area and the motors. You will see mine in 06. New motors, new interior, new dash, new----------almost everything.
He runs a 800 hp blower & a B-Max drive -which he recently purchased.

rotax454... the prop is 32 pitch mirage plus @4700 rpm's .. this weekend it ran 89.7 mph. I am sending the props out and having them relieved a little to about 5000 - 5100 and see if I can get a little stern lift out of it other than that I am happy with the speed and performance. Does anyone else out there have an awesome cat with hp500's and running this kind of speed or better?

My mistake I was running the bravo 1 props the mirage plus doesn't work on my boat.

Ahhhhhhh. Thought that the four blade bravo would be your baseline prop. Being only generally knowledgeable about the Merc HP500, are yours stock? What is the rpm/peak HP mark? At what RPM does the torque peak? It would be interesting to see a HP/torque/RPM chart on your motor. To see where the HP and torque intersect each other. Your motor carb or EFI?
