Summer Numbers 2017 721

[JAdams86]

Just figured I'd throw this out there and see if you guys think there's room for improvement.
Food for thought:
Just had the motor serviced, 29hrs so it's not at full power yet
I live in TX so ambient sucks
Full tourney loadout, gas, livewells etc.

Murder Phoenix (black/black/gunmetal/silver)
2017 721
Merc 250xs
26p Fury with all holes open, just swapped from 25p Fury
standard Lead Acid Batts x4
Manual Jack Plate
and lastly, 2 8' power poles
Ambient 94F @ 36% humidity
Water 82.1F
77.4MPH @5550 RPM

motor has plenty left in it but had to back out due to "White boats"
Haven't bought a HYD jackplate yet, but it's my next purchase. I haven't bothered checking ptp because it seems great as is, but just want your guys opinion

You're kidding right? Stop it. You've got a flyer. Nice.

haha, yeah the guys at the dealership said I had a rocket when I told them I could over-turn the 25p Fury I had, so they threw on a 26p for me at the 20hr service and told me to have fun. So far the boat is great, Best decision I ever made

Yea I think you can get another .5 out of it. Lol

[crank68]

Sounds like good numbers for sure but I would measure my set up so I would know where I was....

[vausoner]

Definitely get your p2p so you can know where you are at and it can help others trying to get theirs set up. Good numbers though for sure.

Wow, fast

[Birdboatman]

That seems awful fast for only 5550. Guessing you'd be at 80 if you could turn 6,000

[vausoner]

Is the rpm number from merc monitor or gauge?

[DREWTICK]

that is awesome numbers but almost 0% prop slip. would think it would be around 5850

[Jb357]

I thought since the fury's turn a pitch stiff you usually enter a pitch higher in the calculator. 26=27 in the calculator.

[Tyler_S]

Yea you gotta be turning more than 5550 and running 77. I've got a 920 and with a 26 fury and I turn 5890 @79.6

[JAdams86]

Sorry been busy lately that's a true 5550. Raising the motor a 1/4" and gonna take her out in a few days. I'll update the next time I'm out. And if I didn't have to drive it I'd post a video. I'm too cheap for a GoPro lol.
