I have a 28P RH on my boat in Havasu......
Well......I'm actually borrowing it from "Risky Business", but if you want to pull it off my boat, ghead!
Is the run this weekend ??
I'm not goin' to Havasu this weekend...

Yeah, I got two 28's - either rotation just to make sure to check out the torque direction ;)
All I need is a pair of 27 pitch Hydromotive P5X or a pair of Merk 5 bladers to replace them.
OK im a smart ass Sorry.

From Offshore Only.com I talked to these folks. They have a prop test program and have some good rep from those boards. Was going to rent some P5X's till i found out my money should be spent first on MUFFLERS :eek: :o

Thanks !! :D
I'm turning a 26p close to 4900 and was wondering what a 28p would do for MPH, but at $480 a pop I'd hate to just guess! I'm also wondering if a small 22 or 24 would give me some fun/harder acceleration?? Does anyone know of site that has a prop calculator? ie...pitch,HP, weight, hull, = MPH

Okay..... based on those charts, I need a 28 to test !! There's a 8mph gain potential.
