What speed does the Stainless 710/#6 32 run?

Stainless got snookered when he took delivery of the boat, he didn't get the props that originally came on it so he's been on the limiters at like 118mph w/ the props he has. His GPS unit only reads up to 99mph so he's not really sure unless he's gathered some new data recently.

Still, an Email to Shueman about how that eliminator Cspray speaks of would at least get you in the ballpark.

Probably so that would give me one smaller, lighter boat w/ more power & same drives as well as one larger, heavier boat w/ same power.

2 inches of pitch lower would seem like a good place to start.

Im sure Herring,bblades, or throttle up will work with you.

2" of pitch lower than what??:confused:

stainless 07-29-2010 05:20 PM

what speed/rpm /diameter x pitch prop are you running now?
didn't you say you had a bigger set of herrings?

Lower than the eliminators set up spoken of earlier.

I was saying that Shuman will tell you what size and pitch that rig was turning and at what RPM.

I dont know of a closer setup to look at than that one.

The 710 actually makes the same torque as the 725 and it makes it at a lower rpm.

My only data is on bravo style props 15.25 33.5 5blade no diffusser Herings

135mph 2 people 1/4-1/2 tank. Didn't think there was any correlation between round ear & cleaver since only the bottom half of the cleaver will be in the water as compared to the bravo prop.

Between yours & the Eliminator I should have a good range for the correct prop to start with.
