I am sending my 3 blade Mirage to BBLADES and i have to figure what the weight is and i do not have my registration around.

I am running a 3 blade 14x 21 Mirage .. is that to big for that boat ?

it is a 260 HP tired old boat but, is paid for and i love it..


thanks,

Steve

I'm assuming its an old 23 Conquest? I had one a few years back and what a great boat! I belive the weight was around 4300 lbs dry. If I recall correctly mine came with a 23p Mirage Plus. I also bought a 21 and ended up picking up a 22p (was a 21 and re-worked to a 22p). I also had a 454mag with a bravo drive. The question would be what are you running for RPM's and whats your top speed?

Hard to believe they even offered the 230 with a SBC / 260.

I ran a 454 mag with a 21, then some bigger power with a 23 and finally a 540 /540 with a 25.

When I weighed my boat, it was 4600 with a 1/2 tank of gas.

Well it ran great a couple of years ago .. then the outdrive and the prop were stolen....But with at 19P MICHIGAN WHEEL Stainless it would run 49on GPS at 4800 RPM...

Now with this 21P Mirage it tuns maybee 46 with 4100 RPM ...

Sending it to BBLADES today It is dinged in every blade and i might ask it to be worked to a 20P

You really need to dump the Michigan wheel and pick up a Mirage Plus as you'll see a huge difference. I would think you'd be able to pick one up on ebay for about $150.
