Bruce,

I have a 28,and a 29 four blade Hydromotive if you need to try.The 29 might be to much and is strictly a Kilo prop really thin.
Dont ne quick to give up on 4 blades you really need to try the Hydromotive I'm running 6 mph faster the a hydro over the Bravo.They are two different props with less blade surface bigger dia. and easier to turn up higher rpm. The only down fall is they will give you some bow lift.

that would be great frank... thanks

I could probably use some bow lift. I could always reduce the spacer in my lower unit if I have to.

How can I get the prop from you?

Frank: We ran the 5blade Hydromotive and the 4blade Hydromotive back to back. 5 blade is MUCH faster. I hate to name numbers, because we had a full tank of gas and a lot of crapola in the boat. You have Kirk's number. Contact him for details.

Pick his brain for the 4blade v.v 5blade comparison.

Peconic,

I've done alot of testing,and the main reason the 5blade will work so well on your boat is the high Xdem. that prop runs very good at a high X.

Tell me about it. It makes a huge difference. Also, much smoother ride.
