I remember some one having a AT built with this set up and just wanted to see how it was running. I know on my next boat I want that same drive and power, also the AT's look really sweet. Appreciate input.

Radio Active, The boat is still being built, and hopefully in about two weeks I can post the results. Dans boat ran with sportmaster drives, at lake x in no chop and fresh water at 102, so that is a reference point to go off of, I will keep everyone posted, thanks

Jeff,

you forgot that I still had 200 rpms left, and we all know that those KE increase in power across the entire rpm band.....

Joe,

Best pass was 102 at the Lake with 34 lab Bravo I but they were a bit too large and the 32lab were a bit too small. Kind of like the 3 little bears. We could only spin the 34 to 5300rpms and the KE rev limiters are set at 5500. We are having some hering 5 bladers made up so we will see......

Joe,

Thanks for the compliement. I really wanted to go to the lake to try out the sportmaster lowers. I am really stuck between prop sizes and the lake only had the 32 and the 34's. We tested the hering 5 blades prior to the lake and the boat handled amazing with them. I really need a pair of worked 34 to get the proper rpms if I stayed with the four blades.

I will have to check on which version props Pat ordered for me. I did not even know there was more than one version? We gave all of the test data to hering and they are building the pair for me.

I would only use the 4 blades for all out speed if I was doing a radar shootout or something like that. The handling and the increased planing time with the 5 blades are worth what ever if anything I will give up on top end.
