Hello Again,
Has anybody tried one of the P5's (including X or Plus) on a 24'. If so, I would really like to know how it worked for you. I would like to push one at about 5,000 rpm.
Thanks,

T-Mone runs a P5X on his 24' Pantera and loves it. They are big $$ though...
You definitely want to run round ear props not cleaver style...

X should work great but I've heard about the additional stress it puts on the drive in higher HP applications due from less slip.

Razor, thats quite a prop,I would say close to 2 grand labbed. Call Throttle up...........go to Prop Talk on this board.

Thanks,
I would not get it labbed and can find them for just under a 1,000.

Jcap runs P5Xs on his Y2K and OH-Zone is now dialing in around one as-well. I don't believe the OH-Zone has found it to be faster top end than a Bravo I though.

Personally I don't want to spend the $$ for one. I would like to find a good used 28p Bravo to have labbed. Anyone got one?

I used a Ron Hill 5 Blade 23" pitch on my 24" Superboat this summer, it worked out real nice I got those extra few MPH I was looking for very stable allot of mid rage rpm. I stepped up from a 23" Mirage Plus, and I has a 24" 4 blade hydromotive that worked out great with the 24' Super. I usally ran anoud 5000-5300 RPM. Mid to upper 60 MPH Range, with a 454BBC and TRS.

Thayes Can you post some comparison numbers like the mirage 23 ran 40 mph at 3000rpm and the 5 blade ran what ? And when do we get some picks of the new TOY ? Just came across a thread in (PROPS) about best top end prop. Yes its a HERRING. Worth the money Im wondering how the 29 Activator in the shootout would have done with a bravo prop like the Superboat had.

Just did some prop slip numbers on on OZONES shoot out against the Activator. Assuming 5000rpm 1.5 gear 29p and 77mph = 15% slip Add a Herring and make the slip 8% the speed goes up to 83mph I think We have a new winner.

3 blade Mirage plus 21" 5300 RPM 64/65 MPH 4 guys in boat. (3 balde Mirage Plus 23" 5000 RPM 62/63 MPH) (Hydromotive 4 blade 23" 5000 RPM 66/67 MPH) (Ron hill 5 blade 23" 5000 RPM 68/69 MPH) I have turned over 70MPH a hand full of times in a rough chop with the Hydromotive and Ron Hill propellers. Both worked great with the TRS and 24' Superboat. Hopr that helps.
