    Prop work for Puma and Cougar hulls?

    Folks who have gotten a 26p Fury work done for either a Puma of Cougar what were your gains and who did the prop work?

    A couple of good choices. Ronnie Gilbert seems to know props for Basscats really well. Mark Croxton is another prop whisperer that knows what a Basscat needs. Mark is a BBC sponsor if that matters to you.

    I've got a 26 Fury from Croxton that will push my Cougar FTD over 80 but the holeshot when heavy is slower than I like. It's for sale if you're interested.

    What did you want out of the rework and what improvements did you see?

    I needed better warm weather hole shot. Got that and better top end. He even achieved it without driling more holes in the barrel. I ended up needing to run it a tad higher than before. Whole new deal after he worked it. Saw 81.6 messing with it in the spring.
