Who has twin 525s

[Baller]

Just trying to find out what kind of RPMs and speed your getting with what prop size... I've been having a hell of a time dialing this boat in...

Need more info. What is on there now? What have you tried?
On a different note, did you sell you Sleek?

I'll have twin 525 in December if I get what I want from Santa :sleeping:

Oops. Forgot about the canopies. Same bottom, as Bolero, though. Sorry.
Well, the labbing probably took your 32s to 31s or so. 28s are fairly common under 525s, so you may start there. If you hit the limiters, you may end up in the labbed 30 area.

Crazy bastard! Don't buy that DCB, it's a POS.

....and the Bolero is 700lb or so lighter, so they probably prop those at 32 with success. I really feel you will end up with labbed 30s or regular 28s. Borrow / rent a few combos and work with it.
