Mercury Labbed 30P Maximus/Stock 32P bravo's
Anyone want to trade my set of 30P Labbed 5 blade Maximus props for a set of stock 28P Maximus props? They have several hours on them and no dings or dents. PM me. I also have a set of stock 32P Bravo's that I would trade. They are in good shape, also.

I have a set of 28's with under 5 hours that I'm considering selling.
Labbed 28P MAX that are still 15 5/8 diameter. I had the difuser ring cut off but the boat would cavitate getting on plane. I ended up having it welded back. (welded from the inside, the outside just shows a clean seem where the 2 pieces were put back together.)
I already have 30P MAX and 32 Bravo's so I'm not looking to trade. (BTW: I get about 300 more rpm's out of these 28's than I get out of my slightly worked 32 Bravo's.)

I originally had 28P Max and Mercury said they would get me too high on the revs if they labbed them. So I had a set of 30P labbed and they are not quite as good all around as the stock 28P. I am right at the rev limiters with the stock 28's. I think I may just send them in to BBlades and have him tweak them.

Hey. gerritm..
I don't know if the max's would work for me. Never tried them.
I have a set of stnd barvo 28's and labbed bravo 30's. (Just
bought them from Tres)
It seems that my labbed 28's with added cup workes the best. I can spin the 30's but no speed gain and the RPM's about the same. I think the 525's can handle the 32' bravos or the 30 max's. Any thoughts?
The labbed 30's might work for you. I need a bit of a bow lift so Bret had the 28's labbed for more lift, but I have some RPM's left to play with.

Paradox, love your boat, saw it in Destin this year. I have access to a set of labbed Bravo 30's already. Thanks for the offer. The boat came with stock Bravo 32 and again I have access to a set of labbed 32's.
The Mercury Racing website says to go down 2 sizes from stock 4 blade Bravos to stock 5 blade Maximus. Going down 2 sizes from stock 32 bravos to stock 28P Maximus worked really well. They were perfect, I should have left well enough alone, but you know the need for mph and I traded the stock 28's for labbed 30's and they don't perform as well. I really want to go back to the 28's or have Brett re-work the labbed 30's. Just trying to give someone a deal on the trade labbed for unlabbed.
