Default 25 too much prop

Originally posted by JS232
HI! I own a 2000 232 with a 7.4 MPI 310 HP. Prop is 23 Mirage Plus. Running 62 MPH GPS. 4550 WOT.

Would a labed 25 Mirage plus do something for me? Need for more speed. Hole shot is good right now.

Thanks
I would say lab the 23 pitch prop and put a little extra cupping in it and this will work wonders/Darin

Darin, what do you think of this : ????

«We grind our trailing edges from hub to tip rather than across the blade, thus eliminating any potential stress risers. Reducing the blade thickness from a 1/4" to a 1/8" which equates to half of the blades original thickness. But does not reduce the strength by 50%, but actually reduces the blade strength to approximately 12% of its original strength»

Darrin,
Just wondering if you have finished our prop, If so when was it shipped. We are trying to go on our maiden voyage for the year this weekend and would love to test the prop.

We have not seen it yet. based on the day you shipped it, I should see it this tuesday. It is a one week delivery via UPS from your shop. With the weather we are having the outlaw has not been in the water yet.

I was wondering if some prop work or a new prop would help my 25 outlaw. It has a 496 ho mag running a 23 mirage plus. It has a great hole shot and not bad top end.. don't know what top is blew speedo line at 65+... I saw you had a 25 pitch for $250. Is this for the prop you have for sale? Would a 4 blade work better in a higher pitch for my 25? Suggestions?

Thanks

what are the rpms at running w.o.t.(wide open throttle) a four blade will slow it down .The 23 is probably your best prop but needs labbed and pitched to a 24 with a little extra cupping,should do the trick.Darin oh! the 25 pitch is sold.

I have a 25 outlaw with a 502 and Darrin just labed my prop. Our GPS speed prior to the lab work was 67.3 MPH with a 2 foot chop. Our labed prop should be here tomorrow, and we will be on the water on sunday to test it out. I wll let you know how it works. By the way our spedo tube did the same thing when it was new. We just had it replaced with a heavy duty tube.
