33ft active thunder props
 

just a question i purchased a 2000 active thunder with twin 502 procharged, the prop i got with the boat are 34 pitch 4 blade, what props should be on this boat? hopefully someone can help me as it is hard to get the boat out of the hole ....:angry-smiley-038:

You should post this in the AT section, you will get alot of help.

a Mirage is a 3 blade prop.......

Please post pics of this imaginary 2004 33 AT since no 33's were made in 2004. No 32's made in 2004 either for that matter.

Did someone hit a nerve?

Post in AT forum and I am sure Brian will have a answer for you.:D

33's didn't exist then so I assume a 32. Anyway, my 382 came with Procharged 500's and 34P 4 blade bravos. It blew-out getting on plane but needed the large pitch once up and running. Just a trade-off for high HP/gear ratio combos....you could try a 1.36 drive ratio and lower the prop pitch but I hardly feel it's worth the expense.

I don't think anybody hit a nerve but he is right. Pat didn't make a 33 then and he also didn't make any 32's in 04 either. I'll bet you bought Aaron's (thunder-struck) 32. I don't remember the year but it's about 01 maybe 02. I don't know much about those but I would think you would want to start with a set of 32 bravos and use that for a baseline.

Matrix, welcome to the board. You must now be indoctrinated into the cult. Move over to the AT forum and post again and we will begin the mind meld process. Maybe the natives will be more civilized then.

Did you talk to Aaron offline re your issues?

I drop the tabs to get on plane quicker. No real issues with my boat getting on plane but it makes it easier.

No, but he should at least be smart enough to know what he bought before he tries to ask for advice about changing stuff.

I figured it was the 2000 32 that he was talking about since it just sold and is the only 32 I know of with prochargers.
