My condolences on the weather.... It is colder then a polar bears touchhole here with 18 inches of ice still on the lake..

Just as a reminder, here is the link to another video when I water tested them for Bryan. They were on a 25 Sea Pro walkaround. little heavier hull than Bryan's and they look like they are really going to make the 245 walk the walk.

Wow, that is cold :shock:

what props will you be going with?

 Aaron, how is it going?
I actually bought the pair the motors had on them.
Barry, whom I purchased the motors from. He emailed me and asked if I was interested in the props.
They are really clean and I hope they work well.
Ken at Prop Gods recommended the exact same pair.
They are the 17 Rev 4 props.

I think they will work great, we will see in a day or two.

those are good props, have a lot of bite in them. i will test a 21p Rev 4 prop when mine is in the water.

you wont see the top end with 4 blades, i bet with 19p mirage, or tempest props, light load you'll see low-mid 50's

Aaron, been a long day, didn't even think about 4 blades and pitch.  Propped for top end, she WILL see 54-55 MPH with the Fichts...

Honestly Bryan, yes.  With a full tower, we ran 53 on NEW motors, barely broken in.  No clue what props she was running, but I'm sure she was propped for speed...

Marc, twin 150s really were an excellent match for the 245/250 Osprey or Explorer.  I swear, the last year and 1/2 I was building them, 2 out of 3 245/250s were twins..Yam, Merc, or OMC...
