1:35 would be my choice you still have some prop sizes you can go to. To small of a prop on that hull will not work well. The set of C&C 1200 mercs I am running seem to pull the engine rpm down further than any Hering 4 pitches larger. That said you have a
hard head and will talk to 5 thousand people. When in dought call God You know our Skater Dad.

Blue State WTF

Runnin hot, what do you expect to gain mph on the dry sump drives, also did I read where you gained 12mph with a 1" spacer. did you order the 17x40's from Julie? what hp are you going to be pushing,heard Predator hit 173mph with 1450's , ?Bobbitt went north of that according to Hering. They said he is running 16.75x38 five blades. We are working very hard getting the new windshield, bustle, and tunnel extension, and new paint. Boat weighed in at 8800lbs., We are only going to run 1200hp at 6400 rpm next year with turn down exhaust so we can be legal
