I would try the 26 if i was you. I run a 26 b1, 1.5 bravo, 496ho, and can spin the prop to 68.6mph @ 4850ish rpm i think. Your motor will spin to 5400rpm right?........that should get you upper 70's i think with that prop and get on plane how its supposed to. A 28p b1 just sounds like too much.

Hey Jeff-I`ll take the 26p Bravo 1 LH if nobody else wants it!

I have `97 27 with the 500 HP spinning a 24p Bravo 1, and I`m in the 70`s easily, running mid 5000 rpm`s.

Would like to have the 26p just to compare, if it is reasonably priced? :D

Sorry to far away for me to have you come and take them off the boat for a day. :D

I misunderstood, I thought you had them up for sale. :(

No problem, just a friend letting a friend try out some props.
