Maximus 5 Blades
 

anyone runnining 5 blades Maximus props on 353 wiyh 500 hp's ????

I have them on a 382 and love them. Picked up 4-5 mph over Bravos at cruise speed......lost about 2mph WOT.

BTW: I have a spare set of 30P Max that have been cut to 15 1/8. Would be well suited for someone running 32 Bravos.

I run 28 maximus props on my 353. 15 5/8" cut down to 15 3/8". Took the hubs off too. About the best cruising prop I've ever owned. Not my best topend prop. You should also try spinnig your props in. You may like it that way, but be aware, it WILL be more difficult to dock!
