my buddy just purchased a 28' Magic and is complaining about how it gets out of the whole. I have not been on it yet, but will be going for a ride tonight at Parker. He has a mercury 525. what pitch props are you guys using? how is your hole shot and what is the top end with a 525? thanks.

I have the 525 in mine and it gets out of the hole just fine. I do not hammer it real hard, but I have no complaints.
I'm running a stock 4 blade 26p.
Top speeds in the heat of the summer with a few peeps & fuel, I will see mid 70's.

I have a 26' Hallett deck and have a 23p 4 blade and a 525. Does ok out of the hole but is high on RPMs at top end. I want to try a 25 to see if I can't pick up more top end.

Mine pulls out pretty good. Im running a 26" 4 blade Bravo 1. I need to get a labbed 28. We even wakeboarded with it the other day and it did great. Tabs are a must! Runs right at 80 with 5 people and full of fuel.

I'll be leaving in just a little while. I will probably launch my boat, idle three minutes to a beach spot in the Islander cove & stay there for the weekend. :D I am going no where near the channel this weekend.

The town was crawling with boats from early this morning, lines at the gas stations, ramps already full, and plenty of sausage boats. we will be in hibernation for the rest of the weekend. I'm out :rollside: NSF

How are the wakes at that speed? Can you use a the wakeboard rope or do you have to use a ski rope?

Wakeboards are good behind it for my son cuz he wants smaller wakes. It looks like (with my comp length rope) there is almost no wake for skiing at 28-30 mph. Perfect. I might even try skiing next week....
