Barry, hows the rpms after the diver cleaned the bottom?? I had to send my props out cause I was turning too much rpms. My boat came w/17 pitch vengenance props and can turn 19's no problem.

I can't imagine 19's on my boat fully loaded with a weeks worth of supplies! It will be interesting to see how yours performs with 4 adults and load required for that trip! When I first got mine I was skeptical. But, after a I filled the gas tank, the fresh tank, stuck my big cooler loaded up, grill and all the admirals gear I found the 17's were needed to get on plane. The bow still rides high for my liking. I'm thinking about adding more chain to the anchor but we will see after this trip. I just wish I knew how much beer and bottled water I need to bring versus the price over there:huh:
 
:huh:FD, I know, it's weird, I don't have a ginnie to haul around though. I was out on mine sunday w/the 4 of us after Bikefest, fuel full, water 3/4, Big cooler, and still ran 4900rpms, and thats after having them cupped and re-pitched at admiral props. I sent one of them back yesterday to fine tune it w/the other. Bring lots of beer, I hear it very expensive over there.
 
The rpm's are still low.... only getting around 4200 at wot. Will have to dive down myself this weekend and see if the diver really cleaned everything off of the running gear, and looks like a haul out will be coming soon... There goes a chunk of money really quickly!!
