Well I finally went a bought a 27 pitch Solas Scorpion to match up with my 250SS and Cougar FTD. What a difference!! For the first time since re-powering the "Bass Cat" trim process worked like it used to and I didn't have to over trim to get performance. The Scorpion lifts the boat and makes it feel light and responsive. Hole shot was better than expected and I was on pad quicker than with the Suzuki 29 pitch 4 blade which did very well getting out of the hole. I was about 3/4 full on fuel and it was just me I will be testing a full tournament load this week on a long run. I was limited on space so I only had the chance to due a few speed runs but very quickly I hit 71mph with minimal trim and plenty of throttle left. I am estimating I will be able to hit 74 to 75 comfortably we will see.
Over all Andy from Team Marine is 100% correct Suzuki needs to get with Solas and make a deal with them. This prop makes the 250SS come to life and I will be buying another one for back up.
