Unhappy

what about HIGH FLOW MUFFLERS for threw hull exhaust going threw the drive will heat up the drive and rob you of 3 to 5 mph and put a load on the motor. art

Either way, expect thru prop exhaust and the altitude to take the edge off the performance. Maybe a mile each or a little more.

Donīt you have a speed limit on the lake, as well, anyway?
I have a twin engined Chris Craft on lake Constance (thatīs why I know the rules) for laid back cruising weekends, but mostly Iīm out on the Outlaw, elsewhere, haulinīass.
On the lake of Biel there are only the 150m and 300m rules to be considered, after that free speed is possible. I think with the technical and local limitation 58-59 MPH are arguably the most possible....

Marcello, you should try a labbed 24" Bravo. It may work for you. The thinner blades giving you a couple of hundred revs more and counter the 24" pitch. Also, Baja hulls run faster in a chop. You will never see your best speed on smooth water, and anyway even 80 mph will seem boring on glassy smooth water.

Why donīt you come down to the Liquid Quarter Mile event at the Interboot in september? We have a great time, there, and the event, in its third year gets bigger each time. They will have their own exclusive dock this year, and the number of offshore and gofast boats will be a real sight to see.

Who ever would have thought that this could take place on Lake Constance?!

Marcello do you know what I mean about the merc rev 4 23 labbed prop.?? did you call bbladdes and talk to brett?? if you want I will tell him what you have and see what he has to say about the 3 props mirage, rev 4 , bravo1. the phone call to you might be a lot of money. and not cost me at all and I will post his choice here and price. REV4 I know guys who are running them and they handle better than the b1, mirage on BAJAS with stock height drives.. If you want I can send you a hydromotive p24 3 blade prop used for 250, which I ran with a stock 330hp and 390hp 454 and 502 way back in the 90s. So please let me help you out ,my mother is from w. germany too. if you had a high drive high like myself or wildcard I would stay with the b1 prop also look in to the through hull exhaust with high flow mufflers its got to be holding you back 3 to 5 and the heat to the drive exhaust can't be good, or switchables anyway please let me now if I can help I only have owned my baja for 17yrs and have tried a lot of stuff. art

stephen, that is a great proposal with the liquid quarter mile, I did not know about it. At the moment I am really not so happy with the boat because I have expected more - the difference to my old one are only a few mph!!

Yes I have seen the rev 4 23 - one of the best prop doctors in Switzerland told me that this would not really work with my boat. unfortunately we had extremly bad weather the last day and lots of lake are overflooded and a lot of wood is on the lakes - no boating at the moment. anyway, first I would try a 21" mirage? what do you mean? Labbed 24" Bravo 1, who has such prop and sends this for testing? I guess that I am the onliest speed fanatic driver in my region looking for each mph on his boat - unfortunately. So this kind of contact I appreciate. This with the exhaust it is not possible due to really strict environmental and noise level rules.
