New prop results

(1/1)

With temps around 80  :shock:  here in the Carolinas, I took the boat out, enjoyed the day, caught some fish  :lol: , and even ran some numbers on my new Quicksilver High Five prop.  Great hole shot, better top speed, and improved efficency over my old 3-blade Quicksilver Power2 prop.  The numbers are below, but notice it's in the 3 MPG range all the way from 25 to 35 miles per hour - peaking at around 4000 RPM and 30 MPH.  That has always seemed like a good cruise for my 22-2CCP.  
 :wink:
The old 2-stroke Merc really becomes a gas hog at wide open throttle though - 18+ gallons per hour...   :roll:



See ya on the water!!
