Default 382 labbed prop's

Had my P5's Labbed finished by Hydromotive and this past weekend with 3/4 fuel and another person on board I hit 82.3 mph/ GPS! (5'100 rpm's) I was truly amazed! It was 68 degrees with 2'-3' chop on Lake Erie. Previous best was last year @ 79.8.

Robert, Hydromotive did the work. Tom at Hydromotive was already familiar with the boat and knew exactly what to do with the props. When I picked them up he told me completely rebuilt the hubs and cupped the outer edge. He predicted a 2 mph gain in top end speed.

I do believe the weather conditions were darn near perfect for those blowers. I'm just curious how fast I would have gone with a 1/4 tank of gas. Unfortunately it started to rain. With a full tank of gas I was running about 81 mph.
