Dan I suppose if I let you try my boxes and a certain pair of garys props you might just find something.........:) teasing!

GB'S wheels rocked and he was quick to reclaim them!

I have a feeling that your new 4 blades will be the ticket.



Bernie the door is open to my NJ bros.

I stretched it to 113 with 30 gallons and just me on the limiters.


I am currently working on larger props but have not spent to much effort ($$$) on it. 33' 4 blades offer amazing acceleration and 105 top end with 4 passengers.



The boat really shines in 3ft seas which is what I like to run over 90 in.

The 300xs is a great motor but it starts retarding the timing at 6150 and shuts down after 6300.

Fuel economy is astronomical.

Dan

What 3 blade was you running? 14.5X34,14.75X34 or 15X34 I am putting the 300XS on my new 09 32' Spectre.
Thanks
