Good luck with your initial seatrial. Tell us how it goes. I would begin with(if I had a choice) 26" Bravo l's, to get an idea of the pitch you'll need. When you decide what props your using, then send them out to be labbed. We put together 3 or 4 basic 25 center-consoles that did low 90's with the same power. One being Enrique Iglesias's boat. Your boat is capable of the same.:drink:

sea trial (powerplay25 and ed)
i finally put the boat in the water today. those 300x's really got some hp. i couldnt push the boat because i was breaking in the new lower units. but i was cruising in the 60's. the 26 bravo's worked fine. weekend i will put it in the water and let you know what its dailed in too. i will post some pics too.

Thanks Again Ed

Sounds like you are getting some good speed out of it. Are you spinning your props in or out?

Had a major issue with one of my engines late in the season. The good news is I got a new powerhead out of it. At the time I got the new powerhead I swapped my lowers for inward rotation. I only made one run with the boat before putting it away for the winter. I can definately tell there is more speed with the rotation change, but did not want to run the motor too hard as I have to get some hours on it first.
I'm also running 26" Bravo I's. Now that the props are spinning inward I am getting much more stern lift with these props. Actually too much. My next step is a pair of choppers which will suck the stern down and lift the bow. |
