The best way to solve the problem is to sell the Cig and buy a Fountain!

Try a set of 25P revolution 4 blades. I think you'll like them on a heavy TRS Gun. Airmarine in chicago by midway airport demo's them for you to try.

Try them again, they aren't the best for getting back to you.

Nothing wrong with the old TRS drives. They'll work fine for that boat, as long as you dont go crazy with the engine builds.

+1000

All kidding aside, call a prop place with a loan program, the tech today is amazing. They will have that bottom settled right where you want it, and most likely get you a few mph as well
