:cool!: Well this is the first year I have really started to experiment with Props. I know it is a frequent question for all of our varied Hull Types...but I would be curious to know...what Brand,Type, Blade Count & Pitch Prop people are using on their boats....and what they like or dislike about the characteristics of the Prop. What Rpms and Speeds you are achieving(GPS)...
I am using a 25 Turbo 3 Blade
Not Redlined, but I got 5200 and 76 GPS Speedo with Lizard and I and a full Tank of Fuel, and she still was climbing...Hmmmm?
Getting about 11% Slip with those numbers...which I am told is good for a 3 Blade? Don't know?
