Bob was going to follow your led, had a line on 29 p5s he was going to swap me for my 32 bravos, thought they be a little small for me and you, just waiting to see how they worked out for you, guess got my answer.. hydros worked great on my checkmate, stern lifting prop, my Mystique is so ass heavy, i think that where some of the propose comes from, Dustin from whipple told me when i get this done i should go up 4 to 6 pitch sizes from my stock 28s...will see i guess, i think your a little lighter then me to, I'm 7800 dry weight, and yours has a pad bottom, mine a vee all the way back, but mines also got the transom notched...a lot of variables there..heck you only used them for a minute can't you send them back, say they didn't work...

The P5X's are bow lifting round ear design ... Standard P5's would never work on mine . I was trying to take the 30 bravo numbers ... add some rpm for the higher X and subtract for the extra blade . Thought the 29's would be close ... lol ... not the first time I was wrong . The slip went up 4 % also ... never was very good @ math !
As big a prop as you guys are running I don't have enough fingers and toes to count that high.

Well......when you guys are headed to the Inn give it a good run for me when you hit the beginning of the Elk River just after the light house. I will be sitting on the deck staring out there and drooling when you go by!!!

Boat looked real good bob! It did take a min to get on plane I was maybe 2-3 minutes behind you, it was throwing a nice tail too. Thanks again for inviting us out. Definitely do it again. We hit alittle rain about 5 minutes from our pier, i did hit 73 on the GPS though. Fastest the boats been since I've owned it lol.
