Re: Changing to a 4 blade
Yes it is, i put some smart tab's on a 17' Starcraft and they did lift the boat in the same manner and lessened the wake along with a better hole shot. However the combination of increased speed, smoother midrange, the chine walking and watching that prop lift the boat and atomize the wake really was pretty cool.
Unfortunatley im running a i/o and cannot raise my motor or trim her out anymore,,,,,,,,,,,,but then i never tried to trim it out when it started wobbling , i had never experienced that before and was concentrating on the effect it had on the boat.
Yes it was pretty cool to watch and feel it work, what wil be really intresting or satisfying is how it reacts under a heavy chop........im hoping it smooth's the whole affair out. I was able to find a a couple of large boat's and run over there (opps that run on top) of there wake but it was so fast or breif nothing could be determined.
