Well we tried
A 25p yamaha, and a 22 b1. The yamaha was faster than the b1 by about 4mph. We didn't run the 23 on gps, still haven't figured out why
But we are thinking lab the 23 and see or try a 24 see what we get then possibly lab it. I really liked the way the boat handled with the 4 blade on it. But we are not getting the boat out of the water like it should plenty of bow lift just not enought stern lift??
The 25 was 57.4 on gps with 3 adults/two coolers/and 1/4 tank of gas.. I know Iknow, 2 coolers? Wasn't planning on playin with props but we usually have two coolers and 4-5 adults on the boat and it seems to always run same speed, on spedo. Best we have seen is when there was 2 adults and 1 cooler 1/2 tank of gas we was being pace by a boat with gps and he was right at 61mph. That is with the 23. Thing is we are only hitting 47-4800rpm max??? Could my tach be that far off??
