the prop is the same as the old gen 2 props

i'll post more next week once i am off work of how it runs.

I did check the speed with 3 people and dog and hunting gear and we were doing 22mph up the calumet cut against the current.

Sign me up for first of the year. I believe you have to put a grand or two into every year on every boat you own, just to get the full experience.

My Christmas present. I don't believe the prop will get much better. These surface drives follow a different set of rules.

How did the 1.5:1 perform on the same boat?

I drove this rig this past weekend and I must say the EFI engine is impressive. It will step a 4 man hunting load with ease and run quite well. The only time this engine bogged was when Trimmed down in thick mud packed with lilies. Other than that work the trim to get the prop to bite and she was back going strong and on the rev limiter again. Again Impressive engine.

After dealing with some vibration issues we found it to be the prop. Brian at PD worked my prop by hand and this is by far the smoothest prodrive I've ever ran.

I didn't check the speed by myself but after he worked the prop I got a steady 28mph with me and my cousin and my 20qt yeti with 12 gallons of gas.

I got 25mph with a camp load.
18gal of gas
65qt yeti with 60lbs of ice in it
50qt yeti 40lbs of ice
20qt yeti full of water and beer
Propane stove and propane bottle
Groceries and clothes
2 cases of beer
