Thanks to everybody! boat was running good. I had a good second pass going but the plastic clip on the tpi linkage broke off that finished my day. 300x motors 2.5 gearcases and 15 inch taylor mids, and lots of set up time. Congrats to Steve Wallace 28 skater 300x 117mph pass he always runs well.

I have had good results with the 3 blade mercs. There is a guy locally with some dewalds and we are going to try and swap props to see what we both think about the two sets. Everbody that has tried my 3 blades picked up speed and like them enough to want to buy them. I will give an accurate speed on both boats and both props the day we swap.
