Matt, as we bring this party to an end I want to express my sincerest appreciation to you, Leon and the Derebery Performance Team for just about the best customer service that I have ever experienced. In today's times it is difficult to find someone who will deliver what they promised when they promised it and treat you like a customer all the way through the process. You and the DPM Team were always very professional and went out of your way to insure that I understood what we were doing to the engines. I appreciate your patience with all my dumb questions and my anal retentiveness like making sure that the drive indicators read "exactly" the same.

I will always highly recommend Derebery Performance Marine.

Mike

Mike, how did the project turn out. Did you get to try any other props, and what kind of speed increase did you get?

Guys, sorry I have not posted. I am in the middle of transferring back to Florida from Dallas. The boat runs strong, I'm really pleased with it. The engines are turning right at 5000 RPM with the 27 Mirages. I figured that I would get it back into the salt water before I started playing with the props again. I tried some 27" hydromotives but they absolutely killed my cruise speed. I lost 6-8 MPH at cruise. At 3300 RPM I was doing 45mph instead of 52-53 with the Mirages. I did not try any 28's, although a labbed 28B1 may work pretty well.

I'll have it back in Florida in June. In the meantime I'll enjoy Lake Texoma.

Mike
