different plans for drives and props . taking so long to get the boat done actually helped . after asking the same question over and over, am i going to be breaking prop blades and shafts??
I finally talked to enough people that had the same setup with the bravo shafts and props that I got the answer I was looking for. My findings were that they were breaking 3 to 5 prop blades a season on 6 blade herings and me going to 7 blades was only gonna cut it down to maybe 2 or 3 a season, which is still terrible in my opinion. Now going to be putting #6 prop shafts and #6 - 5 blade hering props. Thanks to Dave at Imco that steered me in the right direction on the prop shafts for the SC lowers.

so your going to have to run a spacer to swing 17 inch props or are you going to go smaller in diameter ?

they make the shaft longer so the prop clears the cav plate

Good deal when is ti going to be ready ?

just stopped in at fpm last thursday believe or not still working on tail pipes .will be picking it up some time this month and now taking it north to nj to have the drive work done. i guess those 7 blades will have to find a new home at least i got to open the box.lol

Those props are getting allot of miles on them , they will have to go in for service soon . Have you talked to Hering on props for what pitch and rake ?

tried calling jeff last week 2 times no luck .probably still in miami i will try again today i am thinking 17x33 x18 rake to turn motors about 6000 rpm guy in nj thats doing my lowers says should be less than 10 % slip

Wuz up?

Chad says he seen a vid of it running ???

No, I said I requested a video of it running ( the motor w the pipes that come out in the corners):lolhit:
