Sam1647545489 Posted June 5, 2013 Report Share Posted June 5, 2013 Anyone got a 23-24 pitch 3 blade prop. I wanna do some testing on my boat. My 26 pitch is a hair to much right now and wanna try a 3 blade. 24 pitch would be preferred but whatever you got. I would take full responsibility for the prop and any damage done to it if that were to happen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thorne Posted June 5, 2013 Report Share Posted June 5, 2013 to the boat stupid what does switching your prop/Pitch do? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sledhead36 Posted June 5, 2013 Report Share Posted June 5, 2013 It is like gears to a transmission, the change in pitch determines the bite of the water. Some are designed for speed, others are for torque. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sam1647545489 Posted June 5, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 5, 2013 to the boat stupid what does switching your prop/Pitch do? Typically the higher the number, the more top speed you will get if you got enough power to turn it. The lower the number, the more jump out of the hole you will get but lose some speed. Then there is 4 blades and 3 blades. Cleaver style and round ears. Its goes on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wnaplay1647545503 Posted June 5, 2013 Report Share Posted June 5, 2013 I will have to see what the spare prop is that came with this boat. I know it has one but I believe it may have a huge chunk out of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gergwheel1647545492 Posted June 5, 2013 Report Share Posted June 5, 2013 i have no clue whats on my boat, and i have no clue how to take it off. I will check on the numbers tonight or perhaps this weekend as it is kind of far away and still in storage right now. But if its something you want to borrow you can.

LJ Posted June 5, 2013 Report Share Posted June 5, 2013 How about you just buy my boat and then you can use the prop all you want Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FormulaMatt Posted June 5, 2013 Report Share Posted June 5, 2013 I have a 23p Mirage you can try. It is a solid hub and has a little wear on the splines. It still worked on my old setup though. Let me know when you want to grab it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam1647545489 Posted June 5, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 5, 2013 Just trim it up Suzie! Its gets to much chine walk when I do. Plus I think I can get more speed out of it if I step down in pitch and run a 3 blade. Matt, if you dont mind I would like to try it. What side of town you on?

Matt, if you dont mind I would like to try it. What side of town you on? That could be from the prop and not having trim tabs or a combination of both.
