Details ??????????????

I'll get some updated pics posted when I have some time. The boat ran 96 mph the second time out with Eddie driving. We started with some borrowed props and they're not right for the boat, so I suspect we will be over triple digits without a problem. I ran it to about 90 mph on Saturday before experiencing some issues that need to be addressed before we run it with different props. I'll update again once we try some different props.

Glad to here its working out .

Are you running the #6 props on the scx drives. What props are you currently running.

Yes, # 6's, we started with 5 blade 35's. Because my SCX's are not the -4's and not truly surfacing, we are going to try 4 blade props next.

Congrats on getting it all together!!! Any new updates???

Thomas. Clear ur box. Tried sending a pm

I know it's apples and oranges since my 37 is a staggered #6 boat with high drives, but I can tell you with similar power my boat liked the 17.5x35p 5 blades the best. Unfortunately they were not my props. I have run 17.5x34 and 17.5x35 four blades as well, the 5 blade props get on plane much easier and have better cruising speed. This might be different with your 37 do to the configuration and since your drives are likely lower. If you are detuning the engines a little, I would suggest looking for a something like a 17" - 17.5" x 33p - 34p five blades. 35p will be too much pitch unless you intend to run those at the full 1050 hp.

Keep us posted on how things are going!!!!!



BTW, I am likely going to be selling my 37 soon if anyone is interested. It can be sold basically turn key or without power too. :)

I guess membership expired because I can usually get 50 messages. I'll clear or re-up.

From the way the 35's did with the boat at 950 HP, I would say you're pretty much spot on with your suggestions. We may be able to get away with 4 blades because the drives are not surfacing like a #6 boat. Right now I'm dealing with engine issues, so it may be a while before it sees H2O again........
