prop diameter?

[TOBTEK]

How much difference does say a 15" to a 15 1/2 diameter make? someone needs to start a prop demo service in havasu. I'd pay some bucks to rent a few sets before I spend thousands finding the right combo. Found a set of 15 1/2 30 pitch maximus's for a good price, been wanting to try these, even more so after a buddy said that a maximus took ALL the porpoise out of his 26. I dont think anybody has really tried these on OB's ?

Tob, I've heard people talk of a place in Havasu that does what you're talking about. I can't think of the name. Maybe someone will chime in with it. :)

You know if you run the these you will need to drill them with vent holes.
They don't have them when used on I/O's

But that's only for a couple seconds before you reach your cruising speed of 90+ :D

C-mon you guys if you spend that much it shouldn't bounce at all :rollside: :rollside:
