GDSD 16x48 w 23 LT and 9x6 prop - new - 20 mph at 3500 submerged cav plate - 22mph at 3800 "surfacing mode"

Add second 200 lb man 18 mph - submered and 19 mph surfacing

Three men - sub-plane

9x7 - solo add 2mph - two men deduct 2 mph - overpitched for a load


9x6 - lost about 1 mph per 1/8" prop wear - bottom end still good to
3/8" loss - then bottom end gone too - measuring mid blade,
more-so than just diameter.
