    I have the same prop as my spare and haven't run it yet; however! I was asking prop questions this winter, and saw one fella reply that a 25 tempest plus was his fastest prop. You should be able to find that in a search

    25p is what I had the best speed with...this is with dual Talons, big difference in performance once you add those.

    Nice! Hole shot looked real nice compared to my boat (24p Fury). Is the video of a 521 with a 250 Pro XS? Fuel? Tourney loaded?

    Yes it is...it was my 2015 521C/250 ProXS with dual Talons. Fuel was 35% (shown in the video data), loaded as it gets with me by myself..rods in port locker, rods in center locker, Plano boxes in center locker, plastics in rear storage. Engine was 9 on my Atlas which is about 2" below pad.
