27 Mirage vs 29 Mirage and 29 Mirage plus
 
After years of prop testing and hull tuning my TRS Panther has spoken. It told me that it really likes my 27" Mirages non plus. I'm going to start looking for larger wheels for when I install my superchargers. I'm probably going to need to be in the 30" range. What should I expect from the Plus version in handling and ride characteristics? I've never ran a plus version, but I do have a set of 25" Quicksilver with added cupping.

I have a 21ft superboat with a 509 and bravo 1, Best speed comes from a mirage non plus 27, Speed wise its the mirage. For overall usage I use a 28p bravo 1.

I've run 25", 27" Mirages; 24" Spinelli 4 blade round ear, 27", 29" and 30" Spinelli 4 blade; 26" (B-Blades for a flat bottom Fountain) 28" and 30" Bravo1's. My boat just likes the 3 blade Mirages and Spinelli's. The ride is softer and the bow seems to carry better. Or, they just don't have as much stern lift.

Let's try the + version and compare the numbers. We know the differences between the two and can take your input to adjust the props.
Just a practical idea.
