Default prop test is finished

I tested out the following props on my 1995 32' caliber today.
Rough conditions, 3' swells
25 mirage(not plus) original prop that came on the boat. Chine walk, bow light, terrible ride.
24 bravo1, less chine walk, held bow down better, but still a rough ride.
25 hydros, no chine walk, holds bow flat, the best by far.
I am getting a pair of 24 hydros before the weekend.
OK, OK, you were right Liquid Asset !!!!!!!!!!!!!! lol

All the props I bought so far came from e bay and were in good condition, with the exception of one pair I bought new for my last boat. Maybe I've just been lucky.

Turning them in would give me less stern lift, and thats what I need.

I still have the 25's that where suppose to be reworked to 24's. As soon as I get the 24's I just bought (should be here by Friday), then I will know if the ones I have now are really 24's or 25's. I will be selling one of the sets when I find out. I will let you know which ones and what pitch they are. I am paying $500.00 for the ones I bought so thats what I'd sell them or the other ones for.
