what sizes do you have
Took the boat out this weekend, happy with speed and hole shot. the boat is an 87 Ambassador, 454 mag, rv cam (330 hp, 400 ft lbs tq) thru hull exhaust, trim tabs. I have 2 props an aluminum 4 blade 20p and a stainless 3 blade 21p. The 21p is a little chewed up, only real difference i notice is a better hole shot on 20p. Thinking about going up to a 23p due to WOT @ 5300. I have some cavatation at or around 5000 rpm on occasion. The 4 blade 23, from what I understand about props, should give me the top end I would like and still get a decent hole shot. I generally have 4 to 6 people on the boat at any given time. My main concern is fuel ecenomy and driveability. May consider even staying with the 21p due to the fact im loving how it handles. The boat is plenty fast enough for me, hitting 67mph gps @ 4900. I also figured a comparison with my 3 blade ss, vs 4 blade hustler may not hurt a bit, lol.
Any thoughts, concerns or ideas?
