Merc 5-blade 28p ET style prop

I have a custom Hill 5-blade 28p SS overhub style prop, 15 degrees of rake and blades like the Lightning ET. This thing is KILLER!!!

I purchased it brand new and had it on my 21 Starflight with the 300 promax for less than 2 hours!!! The only use it had was a family cruise with the wife & kids (under 60mph), and sold the boat the next morning. The holeshot is incredible and the cruising speed was about 5+mph faster than my 28p Merc stock chopper at the same RPM. I never had a chance to run it full out...

Willing to pass this "MAGIC PROP" on to a fellow 'Mate... and will include the correct merc flo-torq II hub kit and thrust washer as well. First $475+ shipping gets it! ($495 to your door)

Photos available as well! Jim

What kind of power is required to run this prop on a Starflite with 8.5" setback jackplate? Currently running a 225 Evinrude which I believe is not enough...
 
Depends on your gear ratio & motor height...
If you can turn a 28p right now... this may be the HOT ticket! Jim.
