When the prop arrives, I will call you,also Iron man, might just be right? we will see what can be done with yours first and go from there .none the less the prop will be alot better and if you come across a 19 mirage plus to try, It would be worth it to try. Talk to you later /Darin

yes your right and I just found that I read the tach wrong
Im running with 1/2 tank 2 adults a 4600Rpm
52.5 mph gps on pretty smooth water
the silent choice I have , mine is the reverse type No power = thur hull, It helps a lot to plane quicker with it on or thur Hub
then once on plane turn it off and the diverters open for a gain of .7mph
I'll be leaving them vent holes, seem to be good for the holeshot
when in thur hub mode

the numbers after Darin worked this used prop back to shape
OLD could not plane at low speeds
New I can plane all tha way down to 28mph
Old 3000rpm 30 mph
new 3000rpm 34 mph
Old 3600rpm 38mph
new 3600rpm 41.5mph
old 4000rpm 44mph
new 4000rpm 48mph
old 4600rpm 52mph
new 4500rpm 53mph*
improved lift and ride.
now I just need more horses to turn a little more RPM
