Tiger in the water ( first time )
 

I have waited all winter for the Ice to melt in WI... I have never owned a vee. I bought a Tiger from Martins with 525 which they brought up north for me ( great guys ) I ran it with there stock 30s and ran 79 on gps ( calm day ) , I put a set of labbed 30s which I had from my old boat on and ran the boat Wed. 55 degrees and a little more chop and ran 87 mph. Not bad for stock power and almost half a tank of fuel.

That's some nice performance pickup from a set of labbed wheels. Congrats and good luck with the new rig!

LOL, yeah.

Sweet boat!! Who did the lab work on your props?

Nice Boat congrats!
 

Good speed with those props. I always discovered my boat ran faster after I got back to the dock and had a couple beers!

Glad your boating with the new rig finally.

8 MPH gain with a labbed prop... check under your engine hatch I think someone must of slapped on whipples while you were not watching!!!!!


:D:D:D

For those non believers I went to storage and shot a photo of the speedo...

Jon York from York Prop. in CA did my props. I ran these on my 30 daytona at 118 mph. They are bravo I which he charges around $250.00-$300.00 per prop. His # is 714-733-5444

I am trying to do the Math. 42ft Tiger+twin 525=87mph. That is some high numbers. If you stepped up to some 875 Sterlings you might see 120mph;) .You Must have a super light layup.

York is great. Used him on some Bravos I had for my cig (props are for sale). Great to deal with and great prices!
