My pleasure. Glad to see you made it out. I got my hydromotive 23P5-X back from hydromotive . Had the propped labbed and the cup softened. Going to run later this week. The 5 blade runs awesome in the rough stuff which we get all the time in the sound.
Kill switch on at all times. Have fun!!

Hey Morgan, hows the boat working out for you. How about posting some pics and some speed results. I'm sure everyone would love to know.

Hey guy's ,
Ran a couple hours this afternoon , just hit 10 hours on the meter . She is running real nice , my fuel flow meter shows I have burned 50 gals since I filled her to the top ( 140 ) I figure I have about 80 or 90 gals in her know . The fuel gage on the dash just fell off the full mark . I ran in Lake Wallenpapack PA . today in real flat water , 5600 rpms right at 75 mph is the best I could get , looking forward to burning off some more fuel and getting to the Hudson river this weekend and find some bigger water . I'll get some pic's this weekend !!! Boat is rock solid and handles great !!!
Have fun

Hey Morgan:
Glad to hear you're enjoying your boat. I have a 24B1 I could lend you also, but I don't know if you'd get anymore out of it. I wonder what a stock 26B1 would do?
I'm really loving my Hydromotive P5X labbed. I've gotten a few more rpm's running at 5200 and with 140 gallons pushing around 67.6. If I ever stop going on long trips, I'd get the fuel down to around 50 gallons and should run around 70-71. The 5 blade really runs smooth in the chop and the mid-range is about 53 at 4200. Nice speed to enjoy the ride and get to look around.
FYI, I figure the fuel gauge reads 13 gallons more than you have.
I'm glad I could help out, enjoy.
