Default thanks Roger

i appreciate the info. i won't be running that much horsepower but it still gives me a place to start. i was planning on trying a pair of 28 hydromotives as well as looking at 5 blade alternatives.

shakenntstrrd, my 29 came with 29s and the factory performance report stated 88.6 at 5350. The most I ever got stock was 87.5 before the changes. Plus my boat came with carbs not EFIs. Borrow a set of 28s before buying them, you may be able to spin 29s. Roger

I agree with Roger. I am running 29 Hydromotive Q4's on my 500HP's. They were perfect. I recently repowered to 585's, so now they are too small... I just had them redone from Tom at Hydromotive. They are perfect, and if you decide you want 29's they are available for you. Carder

I should be starting to run props this next week. If it looks like we're going to settle on hydro 29s I'll get in touch with you.
thanks.
