    618 prop plugs?

    I’m running a 618 with a 175pro with a 24p tempest, hole shot was terrible during a tourney the other night with a full tank of gas, livewells, and 2 guys. I see a lot of guys are remove one or both of the prop plugs, is this something g i should consider trying. It appears to have the large ones in now.

    It wouldn't hurt to try removing one or two plugs and trying it. What are you turning for rpms on top? Im happier with a 23 tempest with a full load, 24 was definately sluggish with full livewells and full tank of gas plus another person.
