I emailed BBlades and am waiting on a response. There has to be a way to get the prop slip down in the mid teens which would allow me to run in the high 60s. Keep us posted on the progress

I will keep you all posted. When mine was stock i turned a 26p at 5100 at 67 gps.

74 with 5 people and 3/4 tank and a couple coolers. The spacer the bblades wanted me to try was a waist of money. Horrible prop torque. Boat leaned to the left really bad. Im not satisfied with any of the results i e gotten. Im changing everything on the drive this winter. My steering is getting alot of play in it from just a few months of running that much power. So im im installing an imco lower with ext box and single ram hydro this winter. Back to the drawing board
