Spacer time!

I do not have one...I sold it to Ned.
His boat runs much better with a 1" spacer also.

Let me look around and see what I can find.

Great results! That looks like a really sweet all-around combination you have developed. Now you have the summer coming to enjoy it!

Hey Chris, I just reread the post and realized I did't tell you that.....
THOSE NUMBERS ARE AWESOME!! I've been reading alot of old posts about prop testing to see where i need to be at. Trying to get my head wrapped around it again. I quit testing last year and left good alone. This year is the way it is staying, so it has to be right. How much less does your boat weigh being wood free than my 06? Also, Do you have or use any trim tabs at any speed? BTW, GREAT Numbers and your setup is VERY nice!!

Well, I just looked at your pic again and see that you do have tabs, but would still like to know if you use em?

Thanks, Derek

I have the tabs mounted 1" up from the bottom of the boat.

Best speed/stability is with the tabs set parralel to the bottom of the boat.
