Default Prop Advice

Hey guys,


I was wondering what props should I try on my rig?Its a 1991 Fever with 600 hp per side and XR 1.5 drives.This is a total new package and need ideas as to what you guys have tried and what has worked.I am already working with the prop gods but would like some Fountain advice.I am now trying 30 pitch 4 blade bravo ones but they seem to have to much stern lift.Even trimed way up the boat seems to ride to flat.I love the hole shot and mid range but need more bow lift and a faster top end.Any advice?

Thanks Nordic95

A 1991 should have a conservative x-dimension. Have you tried a Hydromotive Quad? Not as agressive out of the hole, but better top end with your drive height.
