Thanks for the info guys, I asked him for mph #'s from 4k to 6k in 500rpm increments, it does have gps speedo but he wasn't watching it, it is a trs boat so I don't want to put to much stress on them, boats been sitting for 5 years, I fixed the engine problems a few weeks ago he's just glad to be back on the water.

Ken, I’ve got a set of 26 4 blade bravo 1s if you would like to try them out on his boat. I don’t want to sell them but you’re welcome to test with them. |

Yes. I’m in Lenexa most mornings and can bring them if you want to meet |
With TRS and 575-600 HP personally I would stick with 3 blades if he beats it at all, leave that couple % of slip trust me... I bet a worked 25 mirage will perform great and help keep drives alive, that power level is about all them tiny lower gears will take and stay together, 4 blades or more then 600 HP create time bombs.

my 2 cents
i am spinning 4 blade 26 pitch hydromotive props considering still getting use to these motors 547 about 700hp??? boat ran 82 at 5600, 4 people full tank of gas, and flat water |
