Well got to run it last night. A bit windy and really bad chop but still got some good results. 3 people on the boat and a half tank. Ran 65mph gps at 4800rpm. That gives me a 7% slip if i'm correct. It holds the bow way better than my other 2 props. Hole shot was decent too. I want play with the pvs vent plugs and see if I can fine tune it. All in all it was 300 bucks out the door with a brand new flow torque hub kit. I'm very happy with the LaserII.

7%... Awsome. 67-68 in good conditons should be possible. The PVS should give you better hole shot. What do you have in it with the current number?

Im not sure how to tell what the plugs it has are now. I looked at them and there is an L on the plug. Not sure how they size them. Im going to pick up a pack of different sizes today and try them out.
