    If you just set it and leave it the manual will be fine. The Hydro sure makes trying different props much easier tho.

    That CMC Hydro plate sure is a pain in the @$$

    Did you end up getting the Prosport? Let's see some photos! I haven't adjusted mine for 2 months.

    Nice! Ive been trying to help Steve move that boat. He said you didn't like the Rude at all. Can't wait to see how it runs with big power.

    Finally, someone else installing a Yamaha on an Allison.
    I really like the color combo on your XB-21 and I'm surprised it's not gone already. I guess too many Mercury/Allison die hards and I know as soon as I advertised my 2+2 with a Mercury instead of my SHO, it sold.... the SHO out performs the 250 Mercury in every aspect except marketability........
