Default Nordic 28 Heat 525 Test Results

Hey Guys, Need a little help here.. Took my heat out today for the first time since the swap and i was MAJOR DISAPPOINTED. Remember 525, XR, Sportmaster Lower, and stuck on a B1 28. The boat came out of the hole like a dog and spun out BAD!! Midrange response SUCKED!! and on top I was running 5400(so the tach said) RPM and 72 on GPS with the drive opened up. Two half tanks of fuel, ME only, and half the cushions out of the boat including the rear bench cushion. Sportmaster lower seems to be same depth as a XR lower. (my Measurements) Prop Calculator at Bronson Propellors website said 24% SLIP!!!! WTF!!! Shouldn't I be around 12-14%? Will a drive spacer help? Prop Work? What do you guys think? Also, 64 degrees this morn when tested, Elevation 880, 6" Chop, 10mph wind. Motor itself seemed great, I think it's just setup?? Any help is appreciated!!

Call us and we can discuss the issue.
22.63% is what I see. X dimention as well as prop changes and adjustments are all options.
