LeXXington Posted May 24, 2020 Author Report Share Posted May 24, 2020 Finally got the boat out on the water. Results are increased my speed by 3 mph. I like the handling at speed, So far happy with the reults 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Bacon Posted May 25, 2020 Report Share Posted May 25, 2020 That's interesting, you gained speed with a four bladed prop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garnet Posted May 25, 2020 Report Share Posted May 25, 2020 Generally that wouldn't be the case. It's possible the 3 blade was blowing out small amounts. A prop ring might solve that. In most fishing worlds we carry more and more gear so 4 blade will be better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only thing I can think of is the original prop was undersized on the pitch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freshtrax Posted May 29, 2020 Report Share Posted May 29, 2020 Likely less pro slip with the 4 blade seeing they are the same pitch. Also the cupping on that prop does give some sern lift so less drag... props = witchcraft sometimes. Glad it worked . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
