Re: spinelli 25 pitch vs. 24 hydro's
 

i don't have any props for sale but i would say the 24's would be the pick for that set up
when i had 454's in my 1995 32 caliber i had 24 hydro's on and doing 72 mph.and
turning them in ward!!!!!

I decided to go with the 24 hydro's over the 26 bravo's. I guess I can always sell them if they dont do what I want.

or you could just call Julie on the phone @ Throttle Up Propellers and her about trying some test props. :rolleyes: You would have to pay for shipping.

Re: spinelli 25 pitch vs. 24 hydro's
 

You really think Julie would send him anything after that post? Sounds like just the freight might be a budget concern here.

hey jpclear...I was kidding about the julie crack !...my boat was 60k, I have spent thousands on props in the past ! So if you think "I" can't afford to buy props, you don't know me.........

Re: spinelli 25 pitch vs. 24 hydro's
 

i have a set of 24 bravo's that i might be selling.

Hey backatcha, Baja; I didn't mean to touch a nerve. I couldn't even to begin to afford a twin power rig myself. But I do run a Spinelli on my "antique" with very good results. Problem is; Mike (Spinelli) has retired and unless you have one (or a pair) that work for you, you can't get a rework and then they are only worth their weight in stainless steel. --- JP

Re: spinelli 25 pitch vs. 24 hydro's
 

No problem jp, I did find some spinelli's for sale, but like you said, if I happen to wreck one I'd probably end up with just an expensive paper weight, so i changed my mind on the spinelli's. And as far as buying props, like I said, I have spent thousands in the past on my other boats on props, I just would like to get the deals others get for once ! So if I can finally save some money and not have to buy new props, that would be a nice change. Jim

Re: spinelli 25 pitch vs. 24 hydro's
 

First let's define your goals. (TOP END, CRUISE etc.)

What are you running on the boat now, make and pitch?

What is your WOT RPM AND SPEED?

How does the boat ride or how does it feel?

With a little info I am sure that we can get you dialed in!

Julie, I found some 24 hydros for sale at a great price, two other members have the same boat and use them on theirs. I live in Milwaukee so trying them out now might be a bit tough, I would need to break the frozen water first! lol if and when I can try them out and they need some fine tuning can you do that?
