I know we did a lot of testing last year, but I think we may get another 1 or 2 mphs. What else am I gonna do, no DAMN UPGRADES FOR THE 600 YET. :D

Ga, thats what Julie asked, I will get that info this weekend. T he 27 Merc.prop we dialed the boat in with is not the same one they gave me. I think the 2ond prop is different ( cut ). What do you think about a 6 blade ???

I would like to try a 6 blade.. but more strern lift? I't would have to be bomb to spend that kind of $$$ but I'd do it if I were sure...
My buddy gave me a Hydro QIV 4 blade 29p. I was told it wouldnt work on my application but I spent the $$$ to make it fit th XR shaft to give it a shot. This is also considered to be more of a stern lifting prop.

78 with a labbed 28p bravo 4bl hitting the rev limiter. I played with 25 & 26 p P5X's and havent been able to top that. So Throttle up bent and tweeked the 25 to 25.6. I only ran it on a very windy Oct. Day. I have as I said 2 29p props. One is a 29 hydro QIV and the other is the Bblades 30p bravo labbed bent to a 29 Im hoping to be the one...My biggest problem is the ability to get the test time in..

You got that right... :D

Hey Gary,
I'd love to try your 25.6p 5blade at some point if it does not work for you.
Speaking with T-Mone, he loves the P5X on his Pantera.
I was about to pull the trigger on a OFX 4 blade from PowerTech but the local dealer wants full list ($650)... :rolleyes:
At this point, I'm thinking to have my 28p Bravo altered by BBlades and keep my eyes open for a used 26p P5X or another used 28p Bravo... :drink:
