    Thumbs Up V-20’s with SHO’s

    I know there are still some V-20 owners out there. I’m wanting to get some ideas of your #’s with 3-blade and 4-blade props!!!!

    2018 v20 - Bravo 1 XS 25P 6100 Winter Time - 72 mph

    For Summer I had another 25P turned down to a 24 or so and can still turn 6100 on it at 71 or so MPH

    25P T2 Ran 5900 or so If I remember correctly, 72 mph, Been awhile since I ran that prop because since I ran the Bravo I sold it and bougght another bravo. The Bravo #'s are with a flashed motor. The T2 was stock.

    Heavy Heavy load, 24 fury 70 MPH 5900 RPM. Pretty much all the time. I bought a 23 Fury (both are 3 blade), that I will run this week, and see if I can maintain 70 with a slightly better hole shot. (hole shot is 3-4 seconds max right now, just wanted to see what the 23 would do).

    When you say heavy load you mean all the compartments are pretty full with tackle and rods, 4 lead batteries and full live well with to grown men??? Only reason I ask is everyone has a different perspective on what they think a loaded boat is. And I’m definitely not trying to be a smartazz. Just want to compare apples to apples.

    Chris has never owned an Xpress. He had ran a BassCat for 15 years prior to the Legend. I’m his tournament partner. Will attest this V20 is one of the best rough water team tournament boats I’ve ever ridden in.

    I am thinking about getting my 250 flashed, was it worth the cost?

    In my opinion, YES. One of the cheapest upgrades you can do to an outboard
