I have a 88 SCARAB PANTHER with Fresh 454/450 HP motors and Bravo 1 drives.
This boat is new to me and came with 23P 3 blade props.
Boat runs too flat in the water.
Wondering what the best prop selection is on this hull? Would like more hull and bow lift??
Would drives be counter rotating??
Also if anyone has found a nice Swim Platform at a decent price let me know and please post pics etc.
Thanks,
Doc

Thought someone on here would have helped out by now????

I will give you my experiences but I have a TRS Panther. I like the attitude that I get with my 3blade mirages. But my favorite overall props are my Spinelli 4 blades. They are a custom prop company that is no longer in business. They seem to lift the whole boat like you are saying you are looking for. For the past 1 1/2 years I have been stalking Craigslist and the OSO classifieds, when a Spinelli comes up for sale near the pitch I am looking for I buy them.

I have heard good things about Bravo1's and turning the props inward on a Bravo Panther. I had a friend with a Bravo Panther and he ran 23 Mirage+ at around 63mph with good overall performance.

I have a 30 scarab panther I run a 22 four blade hydromotive

Do you have bravo or trs drives? how are the hydromotives compared to the 3 blade mirages?? does it lift bow or run flat??

I have a 1989 30 Foot Scarab PantherBravo with twin 502 mpi/420 hp running 23 mirage +'s running 69-70 mph.Handles great just seem to get a little blow out at full throttle take off. Other than that it handles great.If you find a swim platform let me know. Im looking for one too

Are you running props inward or outward??

Hydro motives generally lift the transom, I would recommend bravo 1's 4 blades
