Airtime,
What year is your hull and what model is the boat?
What power and at what RPM is your peak hP produced?
What drive and gear ratio?
WOT RPM?
WOT MPH via gps?
With this info I should be able to better assist you.

The Rev 4 is a great alternative for 4BL characteristics in the lower pitch ranges. It also has alot of rake and less diameter which means it can carry the bow better.
It was originally designed with single engine, slightly under powered stern drives in mind. We have found it to work great on all types of applications including some outboards.

Julie,
I have the unfortunate experiance of owning a Bladerunner 32. It has twin mercury 300x outboards running Bravo 1 28 inch. When I get to around 80mph, the nose of the boat suddenly dives into the water and the rear of the boat tries to go first.
The gearboxes are very low in the water.
I am running the left box on the right and vice versa ( turning in? ) - as advised by the builder.
I am also only seeing 5400RPM on an engine that can get to 6100.
Should I try for the 26 inch props? Bravo 1 ?
Is the boats attempt at suicide due to the props or just bad design?

Is this boat manufactured by Ice Marine or is it Bladerunner out of New Zealand? I have worked with the NZ boats and know a bit about the Ice Marine boat. Either way you obviously have an issue or two. Lets try to get them worked out for you.
