Next time we go I'll have the GoPro camera setup. Should be able to get some great running videos.

Had fun. Great to try different props to get the feel of the boat. Four blades are "fun props" to run. I will have to pick up a Bravo or TXP. Both of those four blades ran about the same, the Bravo was a 28 and the TXP was a stock 29. Both ran mid eighties with a newbie driver. Best run of the day was with Donny's worked 29 TXP three blade prop. I hit 90 for the first time with that. With a little better conditions (very windy and choppy from boaters) that 29 TXP could probably hit mid nineties on my boat. Can't get the rpms past 5500 with the Performer 34 (running mid eighties) but the hole shot isn't bad. The Performer requires lots of driver input. A bit scary running that prop, the scary part is when you come OFF the throttle. Boat gets real loose real quick.
Lesson of the day is if you don't have a four blade....get one. Fun and easy to drive. Boat handles completely different, almost drives itself.

You're getting it Captain Ed! Nice work! You should get a 30 Bravo or the 30-32 4 blade bullet cut Performer, as discussed. Lots of good props available for these boats, it will take time. Be safe..........![]()

I'm working on the prop collection. I'd like to try a 4 blade Performer. Yes the Bravo will be my next prop. Amazing how the four blades make a Stroker into an acceleration machine! Very fun. But the three blades will be needed next year when I repower for the top speeds. Right now I have two three blade props so it's time to add a four while I wear out this motor.![]()
yeah you need a 30p bravo so I can try it![]()

Man, are you typing with marbles in your mouth?![]()
I like the videos, hope to get one of mine running soon (once I get the l/u back and on). I have a 29p TXP 4 blade that was about 3 mph faster than both of the 28p Bravos I tried. Harder to turn, but with room to stretch it out it was 90+. The 30p TXP 3 blade is harder to drive, but definitely faster at mid 90's.
