Ok. I blew out my impeller last weekend and took the boat to the shop. Turns out my trim was all screwed up. The boat is running a lot better now. I tried a 25P Mirage. Got up to 67 or 68mph (speedo) at 4600rpm. I still think that I can do better. Any suggestions? I am going to check it with a GPS.

I can't remember the rpm as it was a number of years ago. I was running a 25 pitch Mirage. I tried a number of different pitc 4 blade hydromotives but not enough bow lift and slower top end numbers.

I now run a Velocity 280.
