Bravo XR SSM VS IMCO SC
I have Bravo XR SSM's with 6 blade Herings on my 35 lightning Stag 496 boat. Any advantages to going to a IMCO? Fountain Perf Report says X Dim is 22.... Thanks!!

Mine runs 81-82 with a full load, 83-84 with the load you specified. I have had it 85-86 one time with wind and waves from the side, all i can figure is the side wind helped get the hull loose.

What wheels does your friend have? Tell him he may want to check to see if he has a bent or out of round propshaft with a dial gauge. It should be no more than .003 out.

I also have a high X dimension 22.3/4, already thew a blade on a herring 5 blade , should I still be concerned of this happening more often or is it a freak thing . do you think 6 blades are better for more water contact ?

Call Jeff at Hering they are making there blades thicker and with a warranty
the older blades would break more often because they thinned them out more
or drop the x a little
