Slip??
 
I ran some modified 34's today with a 1.50 ratio. Only saw 90.1 with my stepped bottom hull. Slip is 21% which seems very high for this hull.

Modified props? 21% is high for most performance applications.

Kirk,
Try trimming those drives in. It works better that way instead of running around in trailer mode.

Thanks Rick...I thought it was feeling loose!

I guess I need to have a set of 34's worked for my application. The ones I tried were reduced diameter and thinned. Not much beeter than my 32's.

Stock 34's as stated previously were terrible. Too much transom lift and the boat was out of control over 85 MPH.

Maybe I should just be satisfied with 32's. But I am on the limiter.

Have you tried 32 - 5 blades, like Danny runs? They will hookup alot better.

BBlades could probably lab your 32's, add some cup, increase pitch, etc. From everything I have heard, the Bravo 1 34's are an odd duck and don't act like other Bravo 1 props.
