Just rigged one for a friend with 2" shorties - needless to say it's too short. Got some 1/2 spacers to add and try out - just curious if anyone had anything similiar and knew the "sweet spot". Runnig 31 pitch 5 blade Herrings.
Thanks

any updates on the rigging? Was considering IMCO's for mine
Nope ... been too damn cold and I've been WAY too busy - w tried 1/2 with no luck - the left one just doesn't make it on plane while the right is biten much better ..... we'll probably end up with 1 1/2 spacers making it just a 1/2 shorter than stock .... but at this time and since it's laid up we're pulling the engines to get freshened up and dyno'd - so it will be a while before I know the "sweet" spot.....
Did u try to change the rotation ?????Quote:

We didn't - but it's been my experience with stepped hulls and moderate power it's not much, if any, gain. And docking sucks...Quote:
