T/S Tiger Speeds
What speed are you getting out of your T/S Tigers ? List props, drives and ratios and engine horsepower.
Mine is a 2002 with 2 different props at the moment, 4 blade standard 34P and labbed 34P with 2 blades reshaped. Drives are Imco Extreme SCīs with 1.5 ratio. Engines are KE 675īs Not wanting to put uneven strain on the engines I have only run 85 MPH so far whith plenty throttle left. I have 4 blade 32P props on the way and I hope for low 90īs. I will let you know when I have tested the new props.

I have seen posted speeds up to 83 MPH with 500 EFIīs I am just currious about what gains can be made with different props : Labbed 3,4,5,6 blades. If everybody post their data it will make it easier for somebody shopping for new props for their Tiger. I should get my 32P tomorrow and will test them this week/Weekend. I will post my findings here.
I realise that all boats are a little different but the info can be used as a pointer in the right direction.
I know that Endangered Species run 99,6 MPH with 6 blades, with twin 750-800 NA engines.
