Kelly that is sweet. The exclusive club is sick for a 28 ft check. How much power you making with that 540? I am able to lift both tabs at high speeds as well.

Got the LH prop from Brett and ran it Saturday. The listing problem seems just as great, only now it leans to right. Need to drag right tab to level boat.
Did seem good at high speeds, but was running in 2 footers that normally the boat runs real well in ( can lift the tab being dragged at higher speeds ). Did not get to test flat water handling.
Will talk to Brett later to get ideas where to go next.

I am not a big fan of left handed props on single engine boats. If it works, then great, but I have yet to see it help. If you do run that left prop, make sure you have a billet upper cap on that drive.

Have a billet top cap.
Going back to RH prop, may be something that can be helped with drive height ? Any opinions on drive height affecting the amount of listing ?
