6 footers? Nah, just 60mph in that chit....and only for 5 minutes.

After that my arm is junk. :boat:

I would like to thank Mike at BLM. He ran a great poker run. Only thing that could make it better would be more boats.

built by me standard b1's into xr's 1.50 w/ nose cones.props i run are hydromotive 32 5 blades,rpm is around 4300-4400 there abouts and 90,91mph comes in around 5000

Have you used Bravo 1 props before? How do the Hydromotive props compare as far as carrying the bow and affecting the trim of the boat?

Thanks for the info. There aren't a whole lot of these boats out there running in that speed range to compare to.

i have a set of labbed 30 merc 5 blades that aren't cut down.there good too.i have enough power to carry the boat out of the water w/ just a slight tab to steady her.
theres video of me buzzing my beach at 90mph over on boatfreaks.

I find my boat is just running on the back extremities and needs a fair amount of tab to stay in the water. I'm changing the TRS drives to shorter Konrads this winter and that may help. I'm running 32 B1 props. It feels like I need more stern lift. It's so @ss heavy.

when i had trs's i had some 1 off hill props from some cat.big rounded ears,they lifted the boat real good.got 88mph out it w/ 530-535hp 454's.
wheres your prop shaft in relation to your hull bottom?

That's pretty incredible speed from that combo. I think my boat would be scary at that speed the way it is. I need to measure the X dim. I suppose they varied.
