What prop are you running? 25 T-2?
I've found mine likes to run at 2.5" ptp. I've played with a few props and really like the results of the 25 fury 4. It is the best all around prop for my conditions as I carry a of lot gear and at least 2 people. If I run it with just me I can turn 5950 rpms at 73. With another person and gear I run at 70 turning about 5800 rpms. I can turn the 25 T1 up to 6k but doesn't seem to have the same results as the fury 4.

[QUOTE=Tone357;10279585] Can you tell if you're lifting the bow and getting on pad? Sho props don't have a ton of lift out of the box so id about bet you're not getting the bow out of the water.
I'd try to find a 26 bravo to try and/or send that T1 to Mark to let him work on it.
Yes it get's on pad, although a little slower than I'd like! Who's Mark and
how do I get ahold of him?

I run 75ish by myself and 73ish loaded down with two people. I carry a lot of tackle, have 10 ft blades and 4 31 series batteries. I am running a 25 T2 and it stays on the limiter. I tried a Croxton worked 27 T1 and it was too much prop, don't really lose much speed but holeshot is worse and I can only turn 5700 with it. I think it had some cup added, as I bought it used. I run mine motor really high, like 3.5 on the plate.

Try a 26P Bravo 1 FS, should put you in low 70's with excellent holeshot. can't remember prop to pad #'s
