I am hoping those of you on here with vast more experiance and knowledge then I might be able to provide some guidance on which prop would be best for me boat.
I have a 1991 34 Scarab excel. two 365's with bravo ones. currently I have 21 pitchs mirage props on her. At 5000RPM i get about 55 trimmed up to 3-4 on the dials.
A good friend has the same boat, he is running 23 pitch mirage and runs about the same.
I feel like a have a hole shot that is a bit too good for this size boat and would be happy to give up some to get more on the top end.
Not sure what pitch I should move to, or 3 vs 4 blade props.
Owners manual says not to exceed 5000 PRMs, which is just about where I am at now full in.
Any guidance from those of you in the know would be greatly appreciated.
THANKS
