Default On Baja's which is better--in or out ??

I have gone from a single to a twin engine 36 Outlaw. What are you guys with twins doing with your props??

Do they work best spinning in or out??

When I bought it they have them spinning out.

Mine are out.
The only one I've driven that works
well with "in" is a 32 Outlaw/ caliber

Even on that one, docking maneuvarabilty
sucks.

I've never heard anyone praise the docking
maneuverability of inside rotation.

I had no problem with the 32 with inward props.maybe it was the props i used hydromotives. I know
powerquest spins the props in to.

The 32 is the only one I've been in that
worked well...... it has bravo's.

Concerning the docking maneuvering,
Whichever drive was in reverse, there
was little effect, unless some throttle was given.

I have my theorys on this, and it's due to
the water coming off the blades at an upward angle,
and hitting the inside vee portion of the hull,
cancelling out some of the available thrust.

My dad's 35 Fountain had Hydro's spinning in and I hated that thing around the dock. It would have to be a huge performance increase for me to put up with the downsides of inward rotation.

Those are my thoughts.

I've seen, at the most, a 1 mph difference.....not worth it.
