Post prop blowing out!! why??
Just bought a used 29hp mudbuddy I put it on my 1648 lowe with 3 people in the boat it blows out on take off tops out at 26mph it just don't have the bite I was expecting on take offs
It has a 11x10 on.it. not really sure about the wear on it
Where I trim.it to really doesn't make much difference either
Motor rpm come right to top end think I need a different prop??

That's a good speed for a 29 with 3 people.

Yeah I'm happy with top end speed I only want more bite on low end take off
I have no issues when its only me in the boat

If I buy a new prop should I stay with a mudbuddy prop or is there another brand out there that's good??
I see Ron hill makes a aftermarket prop what's yalls thought on them??

I assume you have the right transom height motor for your hull.
Stay with the MB prop, but bump up to the 12" You'll see more hole shot & possibly see more top end.
