You where going to tell me what you thought about the prop I am running.
Merc 496HO stock
Bravo1 Drive 1.65:1 ratio
Bravo1 lab finished 28" (four blade)
WOT 5100rpm
non gps speed 60-63mph
Same problem as before, boat doesn't like to come out of the hole that great 20-30 seconds before she gets on plane. I've tried using full tabs down/up..still no luck, and I have tried raising the drive a touch also. While running down wind in two- four footers it even has a more difficult time hooking-up? Into the waves with some down tab and the drive fully down she runs fine?
Between 30-45 mph rpms are way up ... 4800-5000rpm , but the boat doesn't accelerate pass that unless I back-off the throttle a little then give her again. Then it sometimes will accelerate up to the low 60's again. I've tried different trim tab setting and drive setting, but I believe a little too much work is going into getting this boat to perform???
Merry Christmas, (what a long post...sorry but I thought you would want the details)
Anybody else what to take a stab at my problem????
Thanks a bunch.
