I was running the numbers on Mercs calculator, I bet your in the 1.36ish range. From what I've read no V-bottoms really get below 10% unless race boats. With that prop slip factor for what you were cruising & use 1.5, Its saying you should run in the 110 mph.

^I agree, something isn't adding up, I was getting extremely low slip numbers using the calculator.
Like Mild Thunder said before, they made around 8 or 10 combos for these drives, all kind of ratios available. I'm going to get some more run time and compare notes between the props.
