That boat looks like it may have some balls so I'd try these.

HAHA, that might help aerate the prop and get the RPM's up, helping it to plan.

You's on the right track, but your cup is too small for them there meat cleaver props :lolhit: Oh and if you's get rid of some of dem blades, she might go faster uphill.....

Hang out with Mild Thunder and ICDEDPPL and you'll always be smiling!

Just wait until we have our annual offshore boat tech session tea party. Cartigan sweaters, warm tea, tobacco pipes, sitting by the fireplace discussing blowers, prop diameter, and hull designs. Followed up by a game of chess.
