Default 5-Blade Props - P5X?

Anyone have experience with 5-Blade props on a Donzi38ZX. I was thinking about trying a pair of P5X's. Thanks Ted.

they tend to work well on these boats. Try every propeller you have the chance to test with. Within reasen of course.

I believe the x's give the boat more bow lift or overall lift.

That is correct the P5-X will produce more bow lift than the original Hydromotive P5. I have run them on the 38ZXA and they work very well! Let me know if I can help you with them.

Julie,

Yes, you can help. Please PM me or call me 410-493-0567. I have sent you e-mails and spoke with Matt + e-mails to Throttle-up with prop details. BTW- I will be in OC this weekend.
Thanks Ted.
