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. You would have to pay for shipping.

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

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

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

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?
