Re: prop on 29
 
I would say try a 28 or 29 Hydro, it is pretty well known that Hydros give 27/29 fountains more stern lift thus getting the boat out of the water with less trim. I would give Hydromotive a call. Oh and Fountain put Hydromotive props on their boats up until 2001 when Mercruiser/Brunswick purchased alot of Fountain, now its all merc.

PS Hydro props will blow out more and plane harder, but will be 1-3 mph faster top end
