Im running a 4 blade 28 pitch bravo and hole shot is crap, top end is crap, and it cat walks its ass off at 60 mph. What props and numbers are some of you other SDC guys running?

I keep hearing these boats run different with the 4 strokes. Not bad and maybe even better, but different. Is that prop new? Do you know the motor height?
Don't be offended but I would guess you don't know how to drive it yet , anyone that says the boat is chine walking or tough to drive at 60 needs more seat time. I can't speak for a merc but my Sho has a fantastic hole shot with a 28 bravo , maybe your motor is to low in the water ... check it out

With my XRS it took awhile to get it right. Play with the plugs. I've got all my inner holes plugged solid and the outer holes with the smallest plugs Mercury makes... Now that's with the 2 stroke and you have to feather the throttle coming outa the hole... Take your time. don't rush and you'll get it right... Dan
Seat time, seat time, seat time, my 2016 takes more to drive than any other Bullet I've ever had
If you are needing help on your driving I would be glad to help anyway I can. Looks like we are on the same lake.

Not sure on the 4 stroke, but a foil was the best thing I ever did to my 2 stroke for hole shot with a 28 Bravo.

I have offered help on this thread as well as PM. He must have gotten it figured out.

Agreed. Different machine with the foil on it.Originally Posted by BigCountryx
He hasn’t got it figured out yet, just hasn’t been on here or chimed in lately on his post.
You are probably right. Seems odd to ask about issues though and not respond or acknowledge people trying to help. I had those same issues when I brought my boat home the first time. I hated it until someone helped me figure it all out.

I'm pretty sure a foil will eliminate your "having to feather he throttle." As far as the OP's question, nobody has given advice on what works on an XRS/4-stroke.
Nope... No foil for me... Dan
Running a 28 bravo on my phase 2 hpdi. Best hole shot I've ever had. I did spend an afternoon playing with plugs to get the rpms close to 3800 at wot from a dead stop. I thought the 4 strokes didn't need prop venting?
