Hey,

Now that my rev4 picks up ot of the hole a bit better than the bravo, does any of you guys with the 26 pull skiers or wakeboards?

NO WAY.....My Ins. will be voided........(Have something on the motor that wines)

I never tried it with my 26'. I had an HP500EFI, and I never pushed it out of the hole.

You may have a lot more bite and holeshot with the new prop, but you are gnashing those gears in the drive really hard during holeshot. You need to baby any and every Bravo1 boat of the hole, as its not when your Bravo lets go, its when your Bravo lets go.

I would think you would have to smartly ease up on plane to save the drive; and doing so would drag your skier/wakeboarder through the water too far, too hard, too long to get up.

I have pulled people of all ages and weights from 50 to 220 lbs. single and doubles on skis, tubes, knee boards, floats, and wake boards with a 31 that I had for 9 years and a 358 for over 3 years. I use full down trim tabs and I can pull them up and out the water with no stress on them without hammering the drives out of the hole. I have had no drive problems with the 454 Magnums & Bravo 1's on the 31 or the 358 powered with 525's & XR Drives. No one has ever complained about coming out of the hole to slow. I am also using 5 Blade Props on the 358. 4 Blades will cavitate to much and with 5 blades this cavitation is totally eliminated.

You shouldn't have any problems with stock N/A drivetrains....
tow away!
