Re: Tiger Speeds

Re: Tiger Speeds
 

IN OTHER WORDS: YOU PULLED OUT ALL THE STOPS?

CONGRATS!!

Re: Tiger Speeds
 

it was the extra teflon tape:evilb:

May I ask what k planes he was running and what difference they would make?

Re: Tiger Speeds
 

You might have a bit of a hard time with shorty's on a Tiger, I think they are not crazy about hi x-dim.

You'll need to turn 28"'s is my guess, also what is your red-line...

Re: Tiger Speeds
 

'02 Tiger with 575SC's, Bravo XR's, 30 pitch Bravo I props (not labbed). Have seen 87 on the gps in a very light chop.

Re: Tiger Speeds
 

2001TS
575sci's
30-Lab finished
XR-Drives

87 in Fresh water

Re: Tiger Speeds
 

5400 is red. what about 5 blade herrings
also i have stelling extention boxes..

Re: Tiger Speeds
 

All the straight bottom 42's I know that have tried 5 blades could not rev up, cause of too much stern lift and burring the nose... Ottis experienced that, ask him.

As for boxes what I have heard is that whatever the brand straight bottom Tiger do not like them unless you would have monster power that would then requires 6's and run passed the porpoising.

Re: Tiger Speeds
 

UR NOT HELPING.... JUST KIDDING..

Re: Tiger Speeds
 

Mike did you get your drive replaced yet??

Re: Tiger Speeds
 

I am just relating the experience I have seen or others with the same boat as mine have experienced...

I don't want to "p!ss in your Corn Flakes" pardon the expression but I would rather tell you what I have experienced instead of you paying to learn the same things with your money. Again this is only my humble opinion.

Re: Tiger Speeds
 

LMAO !! :D:D

Re: Tiger Speeds
 

Some of us fargin eyesholes are less humble than others...

Re: Tiger Speeds
 

you can say that again.....

Re: Tiger Speeds
 

u right thanks

Re: Tiger Speeds
 

When someone asks about the numbers on a one TRSed Cafe I'm possitive you'll chime in loud and clear. :D:D:D

Re: Tiger Speeds
 

i might be a konrad guy soon.......

Re: Tiger Speeds
 

can your motors turn Konrads sailor? :evilb:

Re: Tiger Speeds
 

"If you poke'em in the ribs he gets reaaaal mean..."

Re: Tiger Speeds
 

Unleashed, how far are you turning up those 30's? Also, do you have a Cover Girl or Extended Cover Girl cabin? That speed is OUTSTANDING. I've got an 01 TS with 575's and I'm running 81 or so in fresh water.

Thanks..

Re: Tiger Speeds
 

Sounds a bit low. You might want to lighten that "ice chest" and take a piss! :drink:

Re: Tiger Speeds
 

You got that right. The ice chest will just have to go. We can get a beer when we get there! But the speed I mentioned was with a couple of ice chest, 4 people and half a tank of fuel. So, we may not be that far off. Also, I have the extended cover girl and full head with holding tank. So there's some additional weight there as well. We'll see though. Gotta get past these hurricanes so we can put the boats back in the water.

Re: Tiger Speeds
 

get the 575's running at 5200

Re: Tiger Speeds
 

42 PB,

Look for us in my buddies boat for the Key West run..Boats getting shipped out late October for the run. We're leaving with the Thursday group.

99 Tiger Teague 1000's dry 6's 94 on gps. UNDER PROPPED, spinning out to keep the bow rise down. Hopefully get that worked out before the run ;)

Re: Tiger Speeds
 

Stupid computer........
Anyway,
Gary's straight bottom Tiger with blown Bulldogs and 1.5's running 84mph

Re: Tiger Speeds
 

Tried 4 Blade 32"s Bravo1 non labbed yesterday and got 82.2 mph with Chris/cowisl and Niel/DryPipeTiger also on board. We were only turning 5000 rpm.

I have smaller pulleys for my blowers that should bring me to 6# of boost and change but we did not have the time to try them yesterday.

More data for you straight bottom Tiger dudes...
