Imco lower on a single 28?
 

At what point does the 28 benefit from a more streamlined lower like the imco? Is it the same 80mph threshold the single cats use?

I "found" some real gains in my Daytona 2 yrs ago when I went to a 2" shorty (spaced back down a 1/2") and bumped from a 28 to a 30" B1 prop. Eliminator told me that the x was already agressive on my boat. Jerry May (There setup man) later told me that there would be benefits but i may lose some steering due to less skeg in the water etc. (went from a best of 88.3 to 99.0 on GPS- had real pristine conditions when I cranked off the 99.0, May temps and good wind chop- maybe 1.5')

My current set-up is awesome in the cat. Seeing as it's not yet sold, I'm in a position to do a little testing on my 28- wish I had some more spacers. Has anyone messed with this much?

Jo told me he feels pretty good about the x on this boat- raised an inch I think to work with the ITS. When I drove the boat it felt like it had a bit of slip in the 40-50 range and connected more past 50. that could be just me though as I'm used to the cat which typically has less slip due to efficient hull etc.. Any thoughts?

Why not, if you have the lower and the only thing it cost you is time, experiment. I don't think you'll see the improvement you saw with the eliminator but now is a good time to try, keep us posted and good luck!
