Default 342/33OL spining props in Vs out

I know the general thing is spining them is is a few faster, but worse aroudn the docs/

But just wondered if anyone has tried ti with our exact hull/drive placment and what they noticed

Will be trying it my self as well once warm weather hits, but curious.

If memory serves... P-29's on a 33OL, in vs. out, no difference in speed at WOT but pulled less RPM's when turning in.

Mine's a little over 1 mph faster "in"....it doesnt blow
out as bad when it rolls over as out, and the low speed maneuverability isnt as good as turning out.

Yep, I have the exact same numbers and agree with docking. But we have high propshaft height too.

With normal propshaft height, you might not see docking issues spinning in. But, I will guarantee it comes on plane nicer and runs faster. At cruise speed I personally think it "feels" better.

You know you can swap the props and run the drive in reverse. It is confusing docking - so go slow. Otherwise, try it. Again, most of this is for crap unless you are running less than 1/2 tank and not much stuff in the cuddy...

I would leave them turning out. If you decide to run them in, trimming the drives up a bit around the docks will help it to maneuver more like it does with them turning out.

With normal prop shaft height I dont think he will notice a difference. Especially with 4 blade bravos... His prop shafts are probably at 7.5 or 8 inches. The WHOLE prop is deep and below the hull by a good margin.

The cruise is nice with props turning in, it carries the bow in a distinctly different way.

I have seen the same speed in or out in both my 32 caliber and 33 outlaw

but, Driving and handling feels better out, not just around the dock, all the time

T2X explains why out is better in one of his threads, made a lot of sense

Also remember when you have your prop labbed they will ask if you spin in or out and lab accordingly

Yeah, trimming up works better on staggered setups spinning in but figure it is worth a shot even on side by side with deep drives.
