Boat was bought with a 23 older turbo prop. Hole shot great, 63-64 wot with a light load... prop to pad is 2-1/2. fished a few tournaments last year with a full tank of fuel and boat started blowing out and wouldn't ever get up on plane. It had a couple of times just in normal fishing, blown out at low rpm coming off plane to the point you had to completely stop and start again. Talked to a friend and swapped to a 23 tempest plus, thinking bigger diameter and more bite would help all my problems. Does fine at the same height but won't get the speed or rpms at wot. So I adjusted the jack plate to get the speed up. Then this prop did the exact same thing as the turbo.... Any ideas on how I might get all my problems addressed? I have a theory that when the livewell or the fuel is full it is causing a cavitation right behind the pad causing the blowout in all cases.... But I don't know how to fix it.... if I run the props, either one, lower to stop the blowout I lose more of my speed. I am now getting better speed without the blowing out with the tempest but I am only running 59-60 and I am not getting near the wot rpms.
