07 fountain 600 sci's
 

anyone having trouble throwing blades on xr's?

We have a 42 with 600 sci bravo xr drives....

I have had 4 blade bravo and six blade Herings on her and have never thrown a blade.

If your props are labbed then you might want to have a talk with the company doing the work.

Stock Bravo props should not be throwing blades

apparantly it is a common problem because of prop surfacing and flexing the blade.
just wondering if anyone has come up with a solution.

Mudslide from Knoxville TN is/was having the same issue with his 07 38. PM him, he may be able to help you out.

my new herings are being cast thicker at the base as per jeff at Hering

I think that may be the answer!!

Thanks

Had an 06 38/600 XR drive boat. Ran 5 blade Maximus, never thru a blade, but did brake a drive.

you will alway's break the drives, it's the weak link.
Have to upgrade to the IMCO scx. You can get away with with using the sc lowers for a while with the scx uppers.
