Sorry Zuperboat, I can not make it. My wife is working Saturday so I will have our son.
If the weather is good next weekend, I'm making a run to Block Island Saturday morning returning Sunday morning. To sneak away two weekends in a row would be pushing it. Thanks for the offer though! I plan to pick up your flags today. I'll send out as soon as they are ready. |

Hi Superboat,
That sucks, You are the third person I have heard that spent money on a labbed prop and had a performance drop. Trade that baby back for a stock prop if you can. I am running a 26p Bravo I. I have a 25 Mirage plus; my boat runs 1-2mph faster than with the Bravo, but I like the over-all performance of the Bravo I better. I'm topping out at 4400rpm and I would like to see 4600. Before I change props I need to install my Stainless Marine exhaust, it may give me another 100 or so. If you can't get your money back or a stock prop, e-mail or PM me with the $$ you need to get for the labbed prop. I'll ask around or consider it for myself. I am hesitant to use a labbed prop though, we have a lot of **** floating around still. I sent your flags out Friday UPS, you should get them Monday or Tuesday, if you don't I have a tracking #. I got your check Saturday, Thanks. |
It seems crazy. I had my prop labbed this winter and also have lost 3-4 mph

Hey Superboat, Are you spinning a lefty?
My friend Gregg's Fountain spins a lefty. He's running a 24p Bravo I at 5000-5100rpm, can't run a stock 26p, holds the engine down to 4500-4600. It seems Superboats need bow lift, OH-Zone is number 4. I think a labbed prop may work on a Fountain with the big step and wide beam. Let me know ZZ, I can ask Gregg if he wants to trade his stock 26p. |
I GOT THE FLAGS TODAY LOOK GREAT THANK YOU AGAIN.I SENT THE PROP BACK TO MERCURY AND THEY KNOW HOW TO FIX IT HA.HA. ILL HAVE IT BACK FOR THE NY POKER RUN BUT ONLY IF IT WORKS.OTHERWISE ITS UP FOR GRABS.I THINK THE X IS TO HIGH FOR A LAB PROP.

Went for a ride last night with JMK. We had our two 24' Superboats wide open across LI sound in 2-3 footers. OOOOh what fun!!! We chased down a tanker and launched of it's 6' wake. JMK has learned how to run JC's old demo pretty good. I'm still learning to run my tabs properly. My Superboat seems to run higher in the water than my Pantera did. Probably because it's lighter. Same great rough water ride. I hope to hear some stories from the NY City Poker run this coming weekend.

Hay Superboaters! I'll be vacationing out in the Hamptons and trailering my boat to Noyac the 14th-22nd. I,ll be all around the east end and hope to see some fellow owners!
